NFE provides access to education in Cambodia for vulnerable children who are not able to attend public school in Neak Loeung and Poipet. Often, this is due to their families’ socio-economic circumstances. By providing NFE, Damnok Toek helps to ensure vulnerable children receive an education and mitigate the risk of these children becoming victims of exploitation, trafficking, and abuse.
Our teachers use creative, child-focused, and both non-formal and formal educational methodologies to support the children to continue their education and reduce drop-out rates.
Children from the community are tested to evaluate their literacy and numeracy levels determining their grade equivalency. In classes, children learn subjects based on the Cambodian school curriculum as well as life skills such as hygiene, reproductive health, children’s rights, critical thinking, and problem-solving.
