Cambodian Teenagers Pave the Way for Climate Action

World Vision Cambodia Annual Impact Report 2024

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.

Nyamata Technical Secondary School (TSS) once struggled with a lack of essential educational resources, leaving students unable to gain practical skills in areas like technology and engineering. This changed dramatically when World Vision partnered with the school in 2010, providing modern computers and digital learning tools that transformed the educational experience. Students like Raymond and Obald now gain hands-on experience in programming, networking, and design, equipping them with skills needed to thrive in Rwanda’s growing digital economy. Teachers have also seen a significant improvement in their ability to deliver effective lessons, thanks to the enhanced resources. Today, Nyamata TSS stands as a powerful example of how targeted support and community partnerships can unlock students’ potential and prepare them for meaningful careers in a tech-driven world.

The initiative, spearheaded by World Vision – in collaboration with the Ministry of Rural Development – is set to transform daily life for more than 8,000 households across five districts.
