Interfaith Youth Circle of Cambodia

7 Members

Traditions: Buddhist, Islam Muslim, Christian

Action Area: Youth

Our purpose is to build up peace among youth through dialogue and friendship in Cambodia.

The Interfaith Youth Circle of Cambodia was organized by Sam An, a 25-year old Buddhist peace activist in Phnom Phen. Our members are Muslims, Buddhists, and Christians who have worked together in the Cambodia Interfaith Council (CIC) and the Alliance for Conflict Transformation. We have monthly workshops and roundtable discussions among youths from different religions and faith traditions on topics such as peacebuilding, democracy education, and good leadership. We engage in peacebuilding initiatives and promote the protection of the environment.
