Youth Network for Change (YNC)

Background of Youth Network for Change (YNC):

The Youth Network for Change was established in 2006 to counteract these trends by facilitating dynamic social development in Cambodia?s poorest regions. Through outreach programs, cultural exchanges, and educational initiatives, we hope to lift rural Cambodian youth out of poverty and into sustainable careers.
Vision
We envision a Cambodian society fueled by knowledge and compassion, wherein all Cambodians have access to life-enhancing opportunities.
Mission
In working closely with rural communities, we equip disadvantaged Cambodian children with the practical knowledge, skills, and goals to make empowering life decisions.
Objectives
? To foster educational outreach by procuring study materials to underprivileged youths, and by educating them in the prominent social and ethical issues of our time.
? To strengthen communication between teenagers, young children, and their communities.
? To encourage young people to reflect on their ability to facilitate positive social change.
Activities:
Community Event brings students from various universities to distribute study materials to rural children, to educate them the social matters, and to guide them in envisioning their future. This also aims to help urban university youth understand agrarian livelihoods, to contribute to the educational needs of rural students, and to engage in cultural exchange.
Normally, there are around 30-50 youths from various universities attending the programs. Youth Network for Change utilizes a discussion model during events in which university students disseminate in groups educational, cultural and social issues.
The Network has conducted seven events in Kompong Speu, Koh Kong, Takeo, Prey Veng, and Ratanakirri.
