During the Khmer rogue period, as many as 25% of the population was executed, and as most people executed were those educated, the country was left with a huge knowledge gap that will take many generations to recover. More than 50% of Cambodia's population are 18 years or younger, and educating them is essential to Cambodia's future.

The Clean Water Project Water based diseases causes huge health problems in Cambodia. More than 80% of serious stomach illnesses and premature deaths are caused by water born diseases. By providing access to cheap or free drinking water, and by providing basic education on hygiene and healthcare, its possible to reduce risks dramatically. Through funding from sponsoring corporations, local charity work, collaboration with Trailblazers Foundation (US Charity) and but not least volunteer workers, NEDO can provide free access to clean drinking water to villages in rural areas of Siem Reap. Community training, and basic hygiene and healthcare education plays an important part of the project. The Water Filter Project was initiated in 2006 and now (April 2013) serves more than 8.500 children and adults.
