Story
Hi there and welcome!
I am passionate about recovery, rehabilitation and helping people to return to work. I am also aware that sometimes it feels like our work it tireless and thankless - so I wanted to disrupt that thinking and provide a way to say THANK YOU.
If you are reading this page, then you are received an invitation to our Purple Co event on the 4th of July.
Instead of asking for people to pay to attend, I thought it would be awesome to give a child the gift of communication. Imagine a child not being able to say " I love you" to their parent? OIC Cambodia is fixing that!
We'll be fortunate to have the founder of OIC Cambodia, Weh Yeoh, speaking about leadership, technology, and creating impact in people's lives.
I hope you come away from the event encouraged and inspired - all I ask is that you donate a minimum of $10AUD to OIC Cambodia! Feel free to give more!
Many thanks
Jo

About OIC:
For an estimated over 600,000 in Cambodia with communication difficulties, there is virtually no help. Currently, there are no Cambodian university qualified speech therapists in the country. At OIC Cambodia, we are working to change that. We're working towards a Cambodia where each of these people receives the help they need to communicate with those around them, and lead full and happy lives.
We are developing university courses to train the first generation of speech therapists in country. We are working with teachers and health professionals to enable them to help students with communication difficulties. We are conducting research and developing resources. We are raising awareness and working with the Cambodian government. We are providing direct services through our social enterprise, Happy Kids Clinic.

OIC Cambodia (Education) (Global Development Group – J703N)
OIC Cambodia (Education) is a Global Development Group approved aid and development project (J703N) which aims to address the gap in health services in Cambodia for more than 600,000 people with a communication or swallowing disability.
Communicating with others is at the heart of being human and helping people communicate is at the heart of what we do. We are working towards a Cambodia where each of these people receives the speech therapy services they need to communicate with those around them, and lead full and happy lives.
We have two significant goals to addressing the speech therapy needs in Cambodia:
- To train teachers in speech therapy-based inclusive education to better include children with communication disabilities into schools. This project will benefit 180 teachers and 5,400 children with communication disabilities across six provinces in Cambodia.
- To graduate the first generation of Cambodian speech therapists from a Cambodian university.
OIC Cambodia is proud to be a partner for Project J703N OIC Cambodia (Education) with Global Development Group (ABN: 57 102 400 993), an Australian DFAT approved Non-Government Organisation.
