In 2024, World Vision International – Cambodia (WVI-C) made a profound impact, reaching over 3 million children across the country. Through strategic partnerships with government institutions, donors, and civil society, we implemented programs in education, health, child protection, economic development, and climate resilience. These efforts directly contributed to Cambodia’s Pentagonal Strategy and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), helping to break cycles of poverty and create sustainable opportunities for vulnerable communities. Key achievements this year included providing quality education to over 197,000 children, training more than 3,000 teachers, and expanding health and nutrition services to 54,000 children and 19,000 pregnant women. Our economic empowerment programs helped over 4,000 farmers adopt climate-smart agriculture, while social accountability initiatives improved public service delivery in over 60% of communes. Additionally, youth-led research on climate change influenced national conversations on environmental sustainability. These achievements would not have been possible without the collaboration of development agencies, corporate sponsors, and government ministries. With funding from organizations such as the World Bank, DFAT, EU, GIZ, and SDC, we continue to scale impactful solutions for Cambodia’s children. As we move forward, we invite development partners and stakeholders to join us in building a future where every child in Cambodia can dream, learn, and thrive. Together, we create lasting change.

World Vision has been successful in advocating for government provision of nutrition services in Cambodia.

We are a group of young researchers in Thailand who conducted a study to better understand how climate change and disasters affect children in our communities. Through this research, we hope to contribute to the raising of awareness on the impacts of climate change and disasters in our communities. In recent years, our country has experienced severe heat waves due to climate change. This interrupts our daily activities, including our schooling and our families’ livelihood, and has also caused us children and adults alike to experience many health problems.
