“Sambath from the Kandal province in Cambodia faced a significant challenge after graduating from elementary school when a medical condition left him paralysed. Determined to continue learning, he sought opportunities that could accommodate his situation.”
This is a story about the resilience of Sambath in pursuing higher education. He succeeds in his studies and now has a full-time position as an IT Programme Support Officer. The story also shows the positive impact of a programme run by UNESCO, the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sport and the Ministry of Labour and Vocational Training of Cambodia using non-formal education to help youth who face difficulties completing their education.
