Twenty-two-year-old Chupha Na comes from a rural area of Kampong Cham in Cambodia where prospects for young people are severely limited by the lack of education available. They are vulnerable to unemployment, abusive salaries, exploitation and human trafficking.

Three years ago, Chupha’s father died leaving his mother to run their farm and look after their six children. Chupha would like to help his mother, who is very poor but without skills or an education finding employment is impossible.

Thanks to a Vocational Training project, Chupha is now gaining the skills he needs to enter a lucrative business studying air-conditioner repair. He now looks forward to a promising career and a secure future for his family.
