Background
Wathnakpheap is a local NGO, registered in 1997 with the Ministry of Interior. WP originally operated as part of of Switzerland-based International NGO Stiftung Kinderorf Pestalozzi (also known as Pestalozzi Children Village’s Foundation (SKIP). SKIP was running a Community Development Project and Child Rehabilitation and Development Project from 1993 to 1996 in Pursat province. Wathnakpheap (WP) became independent from SKIP in 2002 and became a local NGO. WP’s headquarters is based in Phnom Penh and operates its programs in the six provinces of Pursat, Svay Rieng, Siem Reap, Kampong Cham, Kampong Thom and Kratie. In 2002, WP became 100% self-governing and independent from SKIP. In 2003, three of WP’s former projects in Pursat Province were successfully localized and became independent NGOs from Wathnakpheap. These NGOs are Anakut Kumar, Kumar Ney Kdey Sangkheum, and Ponleu Kumar, and are all good examples of our capabilities and competencies in starting something that works, and building self-governance.
