Internship on social business development
📝 Detailed information
🏢 About the local organisation
There are three major pillars of the Soulcial Trust’s work.
The first is the Soulcialtravel.com website, which serves to connect NGOs and people living or travelling abroad to promote opportunities for volunteering.
The second is a disability awareness project that emphasizes on the ability of disabled people through sport both in India and Cambodia. This project, called « Xlability » is the result of a joined effort with the french NGO of the same name « Xlability ». Simultaneously, the Soulcial Trust implemented an educational programme to help schools and organisations to understand more about disability in India and Cambodia, the complexities and challenges of daily life for disabled people, with a focus on various aspects of life from education to government policy, accessibility challenges, disability and employment and disability and the family. (See XLability.org)
Cambodia has issues with rubbish like many countries in South-East Asia. After a numerous successful clean India Mission in New Delhi (also connected with Xlability project with the involvement of Delhi’s disabled people) we are now embarking on the same project on a bigger scale. Through our “Green Influence” mission, we raise awareness among companies, tourists and cambodian society on sustainability and environmental issues. This is our third pillar. Starting in 2017, we would be organizing a trash collection with teams from schools, companies and other NGOs throughout the streets of Siem Reap. There is no government-sponsored recycling system in Siem Reap and despite the many NGOs striving to tackle this issue we still have a long way to go.
