  Southeast Asia Information Port (www.dnyxxg.com) reported on February 10th that the South Korean government officially announced a donation of US$500,000 in humanitarian aid to UNICEF Cambodia. This funding will be specifically used to assist children and their families affected by the recent conflict on the Cambodia-Thailand border, accelerating the recovery and reconstruction of affected communities through a one-year comprehensive intervention program.

  The 12-month aid program focuses on three core areas: education restoration, water and sanitation infrastructure repair, and child protection. The project, centered on systemic intervention, aims to strengthen community resilience and create a safer environment for children affected by conflict.

  The specific plan includes three aspects: First, by setting up temporary teaching points, equipping them with digital learning tools, and providing tutoring, it aims to ensure the rapid and safe return to school for 24,000 children who have been out of school for months due to the conflict; second, it involves repairing the water supply systems and sanitation facilities of damaged schools and providing necessary hygiene supplies, which is expected to benefit at least 20,000 teachers and students; third, it includes specialized training for 100 frontline professional staff, upgrading child-friendly service facilities, and improving child protection standards in emergency situations.

  At the launch ceremony, South Korean Ambassador to Cambodia Kim Chang-yong stated, “The South Korean government has always stood with the Cambodian people, sharing weal and woe. This aid aims not only to address the urgent needs of children in terms of clean drinking water and safe schools, but also to help communities improve their resilience. Investing in children's future is a priority for South Korean foreign aid, and we are delighted to work with UNICEF to ensure that every penny is delivered accurately and efficiently to vulnerable groups.”

  UNICEF Representative in Cambodia, Will Parks, expressed deep gratitude for the South Korean government's support: “At this critical time when children and families are facing difficulties, the South Korean government's generous assistance is of great significance. This is not just an injection of funds, but a solid guarantee for children to restore stability in their lives and access to basic health services.”

  The South Korean government and UNICEF jointly pledged to work closely together to promote the implementation of the project, helping every child in Cambodia learn and grow in a safe environment and fully realize their development potential by strengthening the resilience of conflict-affected communities.
