Product Details

Explore the engaging culture of modern Cambodia as a volunteer on our Khmer Projects. On our Khmer Projects, volunteers not only get to learn about Khmer culture, past and present, but are also able to work in local communities in this truly fascinating country through volunteering in an orphanage or care centre and spending time in a traditional, rural village.

Cambodia is among Asia’s poorest countries; by taking part in our Khmer projects you are contributing to the economic growth of local communities, by living there and spending money on local products. Furthermore, while carrying out voluntary work and cultural projects in Cambodia, you are able to learn in depth about Khmer culture in a vivid and stimulating way.

Community Volunteering and Khmer Cultural Classes

Volunteers also take part in weekly puppet-making classes, cookery lessons, and traditional music and dance classes. Learning some of the Khmer language is also a useful and integral part of this first stage of the project.

Another important component to the Khmer Projects is volunteer work within the local community. Most volunteers spend some time helping on one of our worthwhile Care projects in Phnom Penh, often working for a week in an orphanage. Volunteers can also spend a week living and working with a rural village community, where your help with basic English classes for a couple of hours a day will be greatly appreciated.

You could choose to take part in another project following your month on the Khmer Project. With your newly acquired Khmer language skills and a good understanding of the local culture you will certainly then be well equipped to teach the local children or help in an orphanage.
