NYEMO aims to provide vulnerable women with the necessary means to regain their dignity and participate actively in the development of their country. Every year, around 800 women who are abused, trafficked, sick, affected by HIV/AIDS or abandoned by their families or husbands and close to 700 helpless and orphaned children receive support from us. We are a Cambodian non-government organization established in 1998, jointly working with government ministries and local organizations.

Who we are
Improving the quality of life of
vulnerable women and their children through sustainable social and
economic integration

What we do
Our activities revolve around a drop-in
centre, which provides support services and
assists the women in their reintegration
into society and workforce. The center also
provides counseling, food, day care,
temporary shelter, access to public health
care facilities, basic education, job
placement services, micro-credit finance to
start a small business, and targeted
vocational training.
|
Women at our reintegration program can choose
from a number of vocational training courses - cooking &
cleaning, sewing & embroidery, dress making & sewing,
traditional silk weaving, and laundry & pressing. All products
made by our trainees - previously unskilled and unemployed women
- are sold in our boutiques. This ensures that the women are not
simply beneficiaries of our services, but empowered active
partners. The trainees complete a comprehensive six-month
training program. |
