Teachers are the backbone of education.
Yet in many rural parts of Cambodia, teachers struggle quietly under heavy burdens.
In Kampong Speu, Kampong Chhnang, Pursat, Battambang, Pailin, Banteay Meanchey, and Oddar Meanchey, thousands of teachers work in difficult conditions:
Low salaries that barely cover living costs
Long travel distances to remote schools
Overcrowded classrooms
Limited teaching materials
Little access to professional development
High emotional stress and burnout
Many teachers must farm, borrow money, or take side jobs just to survive. Some walk or ride old motorbikes for hours to reach schools in mountain, forest, or border areas. Despite these hardships, they continue teaching—because they believe in their students’ futures.
When teachers lack support, the entire education system suffers.
Students lose motivation.
Classroom quality declines.
Dropout rates increase.
This campaign exists to support teachers directly, recognizing their essential role and ensuring they have the tools, training, and stability needed to educate Cambodia’s next generation.
