happy year of solidarity 

All of Sipar team and members of the Board of Directors join me to wish you a very happy new year 2023. We wish for this year to be full of happiness, richness, discoveries and of course solidarity!

Cambodia is expected to return to growth, forecast at around 6% by the IMF, after long months of crisis due to the global Covid-19 pandemic. Unfortunately, this strong growth does not go without widening the gaps between the poorest and richest, cities and countrysides. Sipar is more than ever at the heart of its mission.

The economic situation is putting our 2023 budget to the test. For the first time in 20 years, euro and dollar are almost at parity. The increase in the cost of living in Cambodia (gasoline, paper...) generates an artificial increase of our 2023 budget by nearly 20%! A loss that directly impacts our projects in the field. To continue all our actions, we, again and again, need you !

Do not hesitate to send us your donations to allow us to start the year well. All the team thank you so much for your support!

Patrice Lucas - president - and the members of the Board of Directors
