This project focuses on social development for young people. This project is about empowering youth leadership to improve communities ‘development inclusive. The target area is Kampong Cham. For the project, several activities, coaching, and lessons have been organized with the different communities in Kampong Cham. Specific problems include youth and drugs, child marriage, youth migration, environmental and climate change, right to election, drop school, youth leadership, and the current lack of constructive dialogue platform that enables youth to participate in civic engagement. The challenges are building young people’s capacity, such as civic engagement, social security and safety, and leadership. For that, we encouraged youth to act as community youth reporters to inform the stakeholders on all issues and problems and share them through social media. The beneficiaries of this program consist of 50% young women aged 15 to 30 years old who are still studying in high school and university. They are a group of youth with a lack of household income who live in municipalities and remote areas. 100 youth and relevant stakeholders were included in this project to address their challenges and promote youth participation at the sub-national level. 80% of youth improved their skills in leadership and their communication with relevant stakeholders. Funded by Child Dream Association (CDA).
