Best CHOICES Cambodia

The BestCHOICES Project, standing for Best Community Household Opportunities through Improved Community Empowered Solutions, works with vulnerable families in 50 communities in rural Cambodia, where people experience poor maternal and child nutrition as well as child exploitation. Because many vulnerable people in Pursat Province are financially insecure and are exploited for their labour, our project helps participants to make safe decisions about labour migration, personal health, non-communicable diseases, hygiene, waste management and livelihoods.

This project is supported by the Australian Government through the Australian NGO Cooperation Program (ANCP).
