Who We Are 

SeeBeyondBorders Ireland is an award winning development organisation (Charity Number: 20206034) established to build an Irish footprint in support of inclusive education for all Cambodian children. Today, Cambodia has one of the youngest populations globally and much potential. Yet with less than 3% of Cambodian children reaching minimum learning standards and what the World Bank calls “a learning crisis” the country trails far behind all its neighbours in human development. Cambodia came last out of all 81 countries that participated in 2022 PISA Assessments. 

At SeeBeyondBorders Ireland we seek to work in partnership with our colleagues in SeeBeyondBorders Cambodia in their work to bring about positive and sustainable change through evidence-based programmes, in particular by building support and engagement on the island of Ireland for the work on the ground in Cambodia.
