The impacts of changing climate;

Access to food and water;

The amazing culture of Cambodia

We will glimpse a whole new world.

Food security

We will find that food and water are not always easy to

access.

The impacts of climate change

We will see that the effects of climate change are very real for

local farmers.

Human rights

Many Cambodians work hard to enjoy their basic rights like food,

education and security.

Land rights

A big challenge for indigenous Cambodians is protecting their

land.

Laudato Si’

We will reflect on Pope Francis’ words from last year’s Laudato Si’ as we respond to the cry of the earth and the cry of the

poor.

As this year is the Jubilee of Mercy we will also reflect on

God’s mercy and being merciful to others.
