Our major project for kindergarten education in Cambodia has been ongoing since January 2020.But it was only on August 4, delayed by Covid-19, that we were able to bring together all stakeholders in Phnom Penh. Co-hosted by our implementation partner, the Bandos Komar association, this event allowed us to share our common challenges for the 2,300 children concerned by 2022.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Meeting and exchanging in order to work better together. This large-scale project which supports 100 community kindergartens in 4 provinces of the country involves many actors. Led by the Plan\u00e8te Enfants & D\u00e9veloppement and Bandos Komar teams, the project launch event held at the Sunway Hotel in Phnom Penh on August 4, aimed to bring together all partners to establish a common understanding of the framework and reaffirm the commitments of each for the success of the project.<\/p>\n

In accordance with the Cambodian government's prevention procedures and to guarantee the health of the participants as much as possible, the guest list was reduced and the room was specially set up to respect the barrier measures. However, the measures and masks did not hide the enthusiasm of the teams who, despite the health crisis, sought ways to work together from the beginning of the project.<\/p>\n
