(1 January - 31 December 2014)

Background

BFCD has already registered and approved by Ministry of Interior (MoI) on 12 January 2012
for BFCD working in Siem Reap Reap Province and 11 February 2009 MOI had approved
for BFCD to work in another 6 Provinces: Banteay Meanchey, Preah Vihea, Udor Meanchey,

elderly and vulnerable people through providing the English class, agriculture production,
health education, vocational training, micro-credit, job placements and good governance and
environment improvement.

Problem Statement

There are the 36% of people are living under the poverty line and 85% are farmers which
most of them have faced lots of problems with their rice production causes low yield by
natural disasters and poor agriculture technique and supports. In addition, for those who
have many children and insufficient land for house construction and farming, they have
always been falling into debts each year and some of their children dropped out the schools
to help their families, some became the baggers in Siem Reap, Poipet or Phnom Penh. The
elderly and handicap people have been also much concerned for their isolation with not
having enough labor forces to cultivate rice, fruit tree or vegetable. Related to the capacity of
the target people is low, they are not capable looking for the jobs for better incomes as was
caused with bad impacts since last 30 years' civil war in Cambodia.

They lack of nutrition, hygiene, water sanitation and understanding of its advantage of being
good health. They have not yet value for community formation or working as community or
