How can you make a difference? 

The ministry of Education, Youth and Sport (MoEYS) has concluded the implementation of the current MEAP 2019-2023 with achievements and results, including capacity development of Special Education Department (SED) and provincial office of education’s officials (POE) in MLE programme management, and implementation of teacher training (in-service and pre-services). Despite these achievements, there are still challenges and bottlenecks that need to be addressed in the coming years. It is time that MoEYS develop the next five-year plan, MEAP 2024-2028 to give a road map in further improving access and quality of the MLE programme to benefit more Indigenous ethnic minority children in Cambodia.
