Our Interview With Practitioner
Team working and communication is what I could share with others. Also, case management in Hagar’s practice response to Cambodia context. To do that well, ensuring the team well-being is one of the essential factors. When people get enough support they can learn and confidently move towards independent working.
I would like to learn more about good practices of other countries in terms of providing social work services to the survivors helping sustainability. I would like to learn more about effective management and leadership globally and I am also interested in learning about proposal writing and fundraising.
I was born in a refugee camp during Cambodia war time after the Pol Pot regime. I’ve personally had a tough life, facing discrimination and abuse. Helping those who suffer from the impact of trauma resulting from human right abuse, trafficking, and slavery, and helping them to be stronger, to have dreams and have hopes for their lives, is the reward of my life.
Through helping other survivors heal, I am healed from my own trauma. So, being one of the parts walking with women, and children including men who suffer from the impact of trauma resulting from human right abuse, trafficking, and slavery helping them stronger, valued, to have a dream and hope for their life is the reward of my life.
Cambodian families have experienced grief and loss during genocide/wars and most of them are the survivors of the genocide. They live with and carry the grief and loss and trauma which also affects the next generation in terms of how they care and educate the children. Therefore, if there is more support on working more with families and also a focus on dealing with their trauma, I believe that would benefit them in living free from trauma and for them to be able to provide better care/education for the next generation to be healthier emotionally and physically.
