2009 Annual Project Report
Submitted to Friends of the Rainbow Schools by Bridges Across Borders January 2010.
The past year was full of achievements and lessons learned for the Hand in Hand project, yet also was a year marked by a few tragedies and challenges.
Throughout 2009 the project took great steps forward in strengthening existing Community Based Organizations, as well as establishing new community groups in Chamcar Bei.
Mid-Project Evaluation Report of the Phnom Voar Integrated Community Development Program (Hand In Hand Program) conducted by Zaldy V. Barotil & Min Sor December 2009.
To better prepare for the next phase of the program and to distill learning from phase 1 implementation, the BABSEA leadership commissioned this Evaluation Research with the following specific objectives: Assess the Hand in Hand Program in terms of effectiveness, relevance,strengths and weaknesses, efficiency and sustainability
Provide concrete recommendations on all points above towards reaching the community vision, goal, and objectives.

Sarim is a 22 year old school teacher at the Chamcar Bai village Community Learning Centre (CLC). She comes from a rural background, being from a farming family of nine children. Sarim’s family was directly affected by the Khmer Rouge regime and her father was left with only one leg as a result. This made it difficult for him to do farm work, so his wife and children (including Sarim) had to spend much of their time working for their farming. Sarim says that before working at CLC she spent her days helping her family on the farm or cooking meals at home. Although at the time Sarim’s help was badly needed and important, she has since found a more fulfilling lifestyle working as an English teacher at CLC five days a week.
