Aide et Action in Southeast Asia & China

It's our mission to advance the cause of education for all, especially for vulnerable people whose fundamental right to education is either not respected or in jeopardy. In 2019, Aide et Action supported 1,911,194 people globally of which 60,591 were in Cambodia, China, Lao People's Democratic Republic (Lao PDR), and Vietnam.

Our project themes

Our goal is to overcome the barriers that stand in the way of access to knowledge and learning in Southeast Asia. Currently, we are carrying out 11 projects across three countries - Cambodia, Lao PDR, and Vietnam - which focus on one or more of these five themes:
