“Smart Start” is our FH program currently being implemented in target areas of Trapeang Prasat and Banteay Ampil districts in Oddar Meanchey province, as well as in Puok district in Siem Reap province. As part of the rollout, a one‑day workshop will be conducted in each district with local leaders and key stakeholders—recognized as the primary owners of local development—to foster their support and strengthen their sense of ownership for the project’s successful and sustainable implementation.
The program aims to equip parents and caregivers of children aged 0–5 with the knowledge and skills needed to provide Naturing Care for Early Childhood Development in a responsive manner.
During the workshop in Puok district, Mr. Sen Borey, Deputy Governor of Puok district, expressed his appreciation to FH for its continued commitment and strong collaboration with communities and leaders at all levels. He conferred FH’s various development initiatives in the district and encouraged all stakeholders—from the village to commune and district levels—to work together and ensure the successful implementation of the project as envisioned.
