In recent years Welthungerhilfe (WHH) - one of the largest German aid organizations in private funding in the field of development aid and emergency relief - has set-up the Youth Empowerment Academy (YEP-Academy) in cooperation with stakeholders and individual actors in Cambodia. The YEP-Academy is a catalyst to foster personal growth and sustainable living mindset of young people aged 18 – 36. As an educational institution in the fight against climate change and for the preservation of biodiversity in Cambodia, the YEP Academy pursues a natural-cultural approach based on the reality that real, lasting, sustainable, and effective change is only possible through a profound change in one's own inner attitude. Based on wilderness education and experiential education concepts, which seek to promote knowledge, attitudes and behavior in dealing with "pristine" nature as an experiential space, the YEP-Academy has a unique methodology in Cambodia. In this context the YEP-Academy is offering diverse training and camps in diverse outdoor settings.
