Education is a right of every child, although in many countries girls still do not have the right or access to it. Girls in developing countries often become free labor for domestic, agricultural or sexual exploitation. Marie Claire Spain has created the "School for all" Association with the aim of educating more than a thousand Cambodian girls.
The pilot school "Happy Chandara", located 13 kms from Phnom Penh, in Cambodia, currently houses more than 300 girls, and aims to reach 1200 girls. In a country with access to education as a minority, in which 45% of Cambodians are under fifteen and 85% of the population faces great poverty, it is a very important project.
Peasant families earn about $ 30 a month, forcing them to work their daughters who in many cases run the danger of exploitation sexual, domestic or work. Today there has been a presentation of the project with the support of women journalists as well known as Pepa Bueno (School ambassador for all), Concha García Campoy, Teresa Viejo, Ana García-Siñeriz, Susanna Grisso ...
The funds raised go to improve and expand the facilities of the "Happy Chandara" school as well as to another project in Cambodia in favor of the victims of anti-person mines. "Toutes a l'ecole" is the French association creator and promoter of the school that in Spain comes from the hand of Marie Claire.
