On 24–25 August 2026, Caritas Cambodia, in partnership with the Battambang Prefecture and in collaboration with the National Committee for Disaster Management (NCDM), organized a two-day Community-Based Disaster Risk Management (CBDRM) training in Battambang Province.

The training brought together approximately 40 church leaders, parish committee members, youth and women representatives, community volunteers, Caritas Cambodia staff, and Commune Committee for Disaster Management (CCDM) representatives from Kampong Thom, Kampong Chhnang, Pursat, Battambong and Banteay Meanchey provinces to strengthen knowledge and practical skills in disaster preparedness and develop emergency response.

Through participatory learning, group discussions, hazard and resource mapping, and practical planning exercises, participants explored disaster risk reduction, early warning systems, emergency communication, contingency planning, and community disaster preparedness and response planning.

The training also strengthened coordination among the Battambang Diocese, Caritas Cambodia, local authorities, and disaster management institutions, while supporting communities to develop practical contingency and action plans for future emergencies.

Together, we continue building resilient, prepared, and community-led responses so that communities are better equipped before, during, and after disasters.

For more than 25 years, Caritas Cambodia has proudly partnered with Kampuchea Souriya (KSG)—an international solidarity association of students from the French engineering school CentraleSupélec. Together, we continue to transform lives through volunteerism, compassion, and community partnership.

During the 2026 mission, KSG volunteers worked hand in hand with local communities across Koh Kong, Mondulkiri, and Siem Reap provinces, bringing meaningful improvements to the lives of vulnerable families.

🏡 What we achieved together:
✅ Repaired and built safe homes for vulnerable families.
✅ Constructed livelihood facilities, including chicken houses and pig houses.
✅ Built a community meeting room and improved school infrastructure.
✅ Installed a 5,000-liter water tank to improve access to clean water.
✅ Renovated an environmental post and developed school playgrounds.
✅ Planted trees and promoted environmental awareness with students and local authorities.
✅ Supported school gardens, water systems, and community development initiatives.

Beyond physical construction, this mission strengthened partnerships among local authorities, schools, community members, and volunteers—demonstrating that sustainable development is achieved when everyone works together.

The heartfelt stories of families such as Mrs. Soam Khun, Mrs. Phon Pha, and Mrs. Luot Samut remind us that a safe home is more than a shelter—it restores dignity, hope, and a brighter future for children and their families.

We sincerely thank the Kampuchea Souriya volunteers for their dedication, generosity, and unwavering commitment to serving communities in Cambodia. We also extend our appreciation to local authorities, community members, schools, and Caritas Cambodia staff whose collaboration made these achievements possible.
Together, we continue to build stronger, healthier, and more resilient communities—one project, one family, and one act of solidarity at a time.

On 16–17 June 2026, Caritas Cambodia Siem Reap successfully organized provincial and district workshops on “Promotion of Comprehensive Social Inclusion of Vulnerable persons living with psycho-social, social, Physical Disabilities, and chronic diseases” in 12 villages of Chikreng District in Siem Reap Province supported by BMZ-SH- Social Inclusion.
Bringing together government authorities, development partners, civil society organizations, community representatives, and members of Mutual Help Groups (MHGs), the workshops provided a valuable platform to reflect on achievements, discuss remaining challenges, and develop practical action plans to ensure the sustainability of social inclusion efforts beyond project implementation.
The discussions focused on:
✅ Improving access to social protection schemes and welfare services for vulnerable individuals and persons with disabilities;
✅ Expanding opportunities for education, vocational training, and sustainable livelihoods;
✅ Strengthening community-based support mechanisms through Mutual Help Groups (MHGs);
✅ Promoting accessibility and inclusive infrastructure through collaboration with local authorities and stakeholders.
Participants shared experiences, identified barriers, and proposed recommendations to strengthen cooperation among government institutions, communities, NGOs, and the private sector in building a society where everyone can participate equally and with dignity.
Together, we reaffirm our commitment to ensuring that “no one is left behind” and that vulnerable people have greater access to opportunities, services, and support needed to lead fulfilling lives.
