Key: Additions Deletions
Children of all ages are being placed in extreme danger as they are trafficked to and within all regions of Cambodia for the purposes of commercial sexual exploitation. Domestic violence and physical and sexual abuses are endemic problems in many communities: symptoms of poverty and a breakdown in morality after decades of civil war. CCPCR believe that no child should have to live in fear of violations to their rights; and are dedicated to the eradication of these abuses in troubled communities to enable a peaceful, optimistic future for the people of Cambodia.
CCPCR is a non-government, non-partisan, non-religious organisation founded in 1994 by Mr Yim Po on a mandate from the Ministry of Interiour, in accordance to guidlines set out by the United Nations Commission for Human Rights (UNCHR).
Our Vision:
For all children to retain their basic human rights and escape all forms of abuse, especially sexual abuse, trafficking and commercial sexual exploitation.
Our Mission:
To promote, protect and rescue children (under the age of 18) of all nationalities in Cambodia in distressing circumstances such as physical and sexual abuse, trafficking and those at-risk of being forced or sold into the sex industry for exploitative purposes.
