Components of Phare Ponleu Selpak's Child Protection Program
Sponsorship & Scholarship Program
The Sponsorship Program is an important component of the Child Protection Program. Our goal is to ensure that children have access to education by promoting their well-being and providing support for their needs. Under the sponsorship, students receive food support, health services, and referral assistance, as well as financial support for personal development.
Child Protection Link Committee
The Child Protection Link Committee is the mechanism that aims to ensure the intersectionality of the Child Protection System of Phare Ponleu Selpak. The Committee support and empower children in all circumstances bearing in mind the best interest of the child and the non-discrimination principles. The Committee strives to provide a safe environment for all children connected to Phare where every child feels safe, respected and has space to express themselves freely.
