OT volunteering/work opportunities in Cambodia

OliviaSB

I was wondering if anyone could possibly provide some information in regards to OT work or volunteering opportunities in Cambodia? I am looking to move there for around 6 months and would like do some work while I’m over there. Any suggestions are welcome!
Thanks

Have you had any leads with this? I also would love to do some work in Cambodia and surrounding countries. There is “project indochina”. I have reached out to them but haven’t heard back yet. They have a location in Vietnam and one in Cambodia. That’s the only organization I have heard of... please let me know if you have found any others. Thanks!

Hi there -

I read about an organization called Happy Kids Clinic in an earlier post. I actually did the Peace Corps in Cambodia from 2012-2014 and even reached out to the Happy Kids Clinic about 6 months ago to learn a little more about what they're doing. You should be able to find their website with a quick google search. You might be able to find some info on The Cambodia Trust Organization. I did some shadowing of their Physiotherapy program while I was there.
