Vision: Sustainable development for Cambodia
Welcome to PEPY!
Who are we?
PEPY
= Promoting Education, emPowering Youth
Our vision:
All young Cambodians empowered to achieve their dreams
Our mission:
To work with young people, to invest time and resources, connecting them with skills, systems and inspiration necessary to achieve their goal, raise their standard of living and improve the quality of education in their community PEPY is a registered 501(c)3 INGO in the United States, holding MOUs with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Education, Youth, and Sport in Cambodia.
Our target area
• PEPY operates in the District of Kralanh, working with young people from that area. • Kralanh is located about 57km north east of Siem Reap.
• PEPY office and HQ is in Siem Reap
Where we work
Who started PEPY, when and how?
In 2005, a group of friends who were teaching English in Japan decided to raise money to build a school in Cambodia, in an effort to improve the quality of education in rural communities. On visiting the school they built, they found many empty classroom. There were not enough teachers to teach the classes, and many of the students dropped out. This made them realise that
“Schools don’t teach kids, people do, ”
What were some of our first programs?
• • • • • • • • • Bike to school Teacher award program Child To Child Young Leader XO class Library Literacy camp Classroom Library Travelling Teacher Support
What are the main challenges for our work?
• • • • • • • • In this area, many young people drop out of school and illegally migrate to Thailand for work. Due to low salaries and poor government teacher training, many teachers lack the skills and commitment to attend school There are not enough qualified teachers in rural areas Young people lack confidence in their own abilities Many people don ’t understand the value of education Communities don ’t have access to resources and information about training, jobs and other opportunities These is a lack of good role models for young people Communities value tangible stuff than intangible stuff
New strategic direction 2013-2018 Key Goal: Help Kralanh graduates accessing skilled employment
What programs are we running now ?
1.Dream Class
Help students set goals, build confidence, and learn how to achieve their goals and possible futures. Including: sharing events, a Skills Fair, and field trips for students i.e. Khmer Talks. We will also contribute to connecting students to other opportunities and scholarships, and supporting them in applying.
What programs are we running now ?
Scholarship
We offer scholarships to 20 students who lack of financial support to go to universities or Vocational Training. PEPY provides the following support: tuition fee, bike, living cost, medical care, and school supplies. PEPY support only two years.
What programs are we running now ?
3. Learning Center in Siem Reap
To support the development of PEPY scholarship students, we offer English, ICT, and leadership courses to complement their university and vocational studies.
What programs are we running now ?
4. Creative Learning Class (CLC)
These supplementary classes help students be confident, creative, and work in teams. At Chanleas Dai Junior High School, many of these skills are developed through technology and use of XO laptops.
What programs are we running now
?
5. English Class
In PEPY English, students learn more about the world while learning the basics of the English language.
PEPY ’s next plan
• • PEPY international NGO will be localized to local NGO (Name: PEPY-Empowering Youth).
In September 2014.
• Programs and activities remain the same. • Branding: There are some small change such as name, logo, vision, mission and core value.
Our core values
At PEPY, we believe that while what we do, and why we do it our important, perhaps even more important is HOW we do it. To this end, we developed 12 core values to guide our decision making: 1. Commit to our unending potential for improvement 2. Think unreasonably. Dream BIG 3. Focus on impact, not inputs. Invest in people, not things 4. Be strategic in our choices, and thoughtful in our plans 5. Collaborate, both within and beyond 6. Create and sustain a culture of open feedback 7. Work with, not for 8. Do more with less. Be responsible in our environmental and economic choices.
9. Be humble in success, transparent in failure and share the lessons we learn 10. Nurture the creative and quirky PEPY culture 11. Stay connected with the PEPY family. Wave until you can ’ t see them anymore.
12. Live the principles we promote. Work with integrity.
Any questions?

KEY ISSUES/CHALLENGES AND PROPOSED RECOMMENDATIONS
Vision: Sustainable Development for Cambodia
Theme 1: Socio-Economic Development
Significant poverty among the poor still exists Vulnerable people still unable to gain opportunities arising Consequences of the economic growth have negatively affected the poor The growth enlarges the disparity between the rich and the poor (social gap) Unemployment, health care and quality of education remain an issue Low access to quality public services.
53
Proposed Recommendations
Promote SME at rural and regional level Deliver training program to compete in ASEAN markets Develop Employment Law and Employment Policy Reform education system to match job market and conduct project for employment in all sectors Develop and enforcement of Minimum Wage Policy in systematic and non-systematic economic sectors Ensure that all development actors are more accountable for their aid.
54
Theme 2: Governance, Anti-Corruption and Inclusive Partnership
Cooperation and partnership among development actors is still limited Lack of information exchange and joint effort Lack of transparency and accountability in the mgt. and distribution of national revenue Corruption issues are reported at all levels Less acknowledgement on the CSOs significant contribution to fight against corruption, to increase the quality of public service and to strengthen good governance. 55
Proposed Recommendations
Enhance enabling environment for relevant stakeholders with transparency Having full consultation among development actors Provide fuller delegation of responsibilities and resources to district and commune administration Ensure that citizens have access to information Strengthen monitoring and evaluation system and mechanism Pay more attention on public service quality.
56
Theme 3: Legal and Judicial Reform
Law of effective law enforcement and absence of independent institutions to protect people’s right Suppression and interference by the Executive on the Judiciary Lack of legal aid provision and access to legal defense especially for the poor Corruption within the judiciary and limited resource allocation for court officials Openness and transparency on legislation drafting process: no standardized practice.
57
Proposed Recommendations
The gov’t to speed up the process of creating an independent National Human Rights Commission The gov’t to uphold the separation of powers as clearly stated in the Constitution The courts shall act independently without accepting any influence from the gov’t and other external sources The Anti-Corruption Unit should act independently and professionally to actively investigate and punish all the corruption cases.
58
Theme 4: Access to Information and Media
Cambodia has not historically been an open society Gaining access to basic information is still difficult Institutional capacity is weak and mechanisms for information disclosure are lacking Low education, Cambodian’s understanding of their rights generally is low Law regulating the media are not clearly written and sometimes inconsistently applied Many media outlets in Cambodia are state-owned or aligned to the ruling party.
59
Proposed Recommendations
Speed up the Access to Information legislation Develop a culture of openness Enforce existing laws and institutional capacity to disclose information Ensure the freedom of expression and of the press Open the TV and radio market to independent and community broadcaster Make the draft of the Cyber Law available to the public and allow CSOs to contribute to its elaboration.
60
Theme 5: Land, Housing and Eviction
Unlawful land grabbing occurs nationwide, both small and large scale Ever-increasing percentage of the Cambodian population is landless Indigenous communities face particularly tremendous obstacles in being recognized as legal entities and registering their land for collective ownership Lack of transparency on how MAFF grants ELCs The evicted people are left homeless, receive unfair compensation or placed in the inadequate places. 61
Proposed Recommendations
Ensure appropriate financial assistance and adequate housing given to those who were displaced by the development Ensure that the eviction occur in compliance with the land law with greater attention on the community Carry out a mapping of the housing needs of the country and disseminate information The gov’t should provide sufficient time to CSOs to analyze any draft and join the consultation Speed up the Law on Access to Information.
62
Theme 6: Environment and NRM
Land and mining concession lead to forest degradation and deforestation Lack of resources and capacity to adapt and mitigate climate change and disaster risk Most ELCs and hydrology dam construction were allowed without any professional environmental impact assessment Most ELCs affected the local and indigenous peoples’ livelihood throughout forest land clearance activity.
63
Proposed Recommendations
M&E system of ELCs database should be regularly updated and made accessible to the publics Develop national social and environmental safeguards for REDD+ and climate change The gov’t should ensure that the private companies respect the welfare of local communities The gov’t should seriously address the drivers of deforestation and forest degradation The gov’t & relevant partners to ensure an efficient, effective strategy for climate change and disaster.

Theme 7: Enabling Environment and Demo. Space Cambodian CSOs are heavily dependent/competing for international grants and donations Relationships between the government and CSOs are still limited No clear roles between LNGOs and INGOs Cooperation among CSOs is increasing but the depth of cooperation is generally low Capacity of umbrella groups to receive and address complaints from members Gov’t roles increases through the LANGO and DCPS.
65
Proposed Recommendations
Engagement of CSOs in the LANGO and DCPS Regular reflection on how best CSOs can support other development actors CSOs to work with UN institutions and other international stakeholders to document and publicize any human right abuse CSOs to invest further in pursuing local philanthropy, grants from government and social enterprise CSOs to commit to “downward accountability”.
66
Theme 8: Electoral Reform Need to solve some common issues: election administration, voter registration, media coverage, the use of state resources and seat allocation No disclosure of relevant election data by the gov’t bodies Need to form an independent, external commission to investigate election irregularities Government, civil society and other stakeholders to speed up the electoral reform.
67
Proposed Recommendations
The gov’t to make ongoing consultation with the civil societies, election monitors and political parties There must be clear understanding of the term “Electoral Reform” There needs a full review of all election information Civil society will need to play a leading role in electoral reform It is encouraged to have involvement/influence from international communities.
68
Theme 9: Human Rights, Human Development and Social Inclusion Recent use of excessive force from the government to brutally crackdown the civilian demonstrations Lack of law enforcement and anti-corruption as well as low commitment to social justice and human rights Limited capacity of local people and local authorities about basic human rights and human development Education not yet responded to the current social situation and in line with the development trends It needs to have an affordable, high quality and accessible to all people.
69
Proposed Recommendations
There needs to strengthen the capacity of local people and local authorities about basic human rights The Gov’t to ensure the well-being of all people including vulnerable people to have better public services with equality and equity.
All development actors to include and involve vulnerable or marginalized people in all development processes The health and education institutional quality must be improved and transparency is essential.
