    Om programmet

    There is a wide range of different activities you can get involved in on this internship, which gives you a well-rounded experience. These tasks include:

    • Interview and screen potential loan beneficiaries
    • Monitor and support current entrepreneurs with their business
    • Provide training for the current Micro-finance beneficiaries

    Your work will focus on the following main areas:

    Interview and screen potential loan beneficiaries

    An important part of this project is spreading the word among entrepreneurs who can benefit from a small loan. You’ll introduce the Projects Abroad Micro-finance programme to potential beneficiaries. The next step is then to conduct interviews with prospects who are interested in participating, and review their business plans. You may also have the chance to sit in on meetings to help decide candidates for the loans.

    Monitor and support current entrepreneurs with their business

    You’ll spend a lot of your time on this internship monitoring our current beneficiaries, and supporting them in their business ventures.This may take the form of:

    • Conducting home and business visits to track their progress
    • Helping them with business plans
    • Providing personalised advice for improvements

    The majority of our beneficiaries are food and drinks sellers, tailors, or salon owners.

    Provide training for the current Micro-finance beneficiaries

    You’ll also help organise regular training workshops.  This will equip the local entrepreneurs with the skills and knowledge they need to successfully manage their business. These can cover different topics that are relevant for small businesses, such as:

    • Basic accounting practices
    • Customer service
    • Marketing
    • Project management

    Typisk dag

    After a hearty breakfast in your shared apartment, you’ll travel to work by tuk-tuk. On your first day, a Projects Abroad staff member will accompany you to show you the way.

    A typical day on this internship runs from 8:30am to 4:30pm, Monday to Friday. You’ll have your evenings and weekends free to socialise, relax, or travel.

    On a daily basis you will be involved in a wide variety of tasks. These may include meeting with beneficiaries, planning and conducting training sessions, and managing loan accounts. You’ll gain great insight into how small businesses operate in Cambodia, and the challenges that they face. We typically work with food and drink stalls, as well as tailors and salon owners.

    A fun aspect of this project is that you get to travel around the city to visit the beneficiaries at their home or work, so you’re not stuck in an office all day.

    Once you’re done for the day, it’s time to soak in sights and sounds of Phnom Penh. You can join us on one of our regular socials, where you’ll get to know your fellow interns and volunteers and local Projects Abroad staff. Or explore the city, visiting tourist attractions such as the National Museum, the Royal Palace, or one of the many temples and local markets.

    Fritidsaktiviteter

    Explore Cambodia and you will be amazed by the juxtaposition of vibrant cities, achingly beautiful scenery, and famous historical landmarks. This country has a lot to offer during your free time.

    The world-famous gathering of temples near Siem Reap is a must for all visitors, especially the magnificent Angkor Wat. Climbing over huge tree roots to temple doorways shrouded by vines is guaranteed to bring out the Indiana Jones in you!

    However, Cambodia offers far more than ancient temples. You can go trekking in the jungles or try snorkelling and dolphin-spotting in the seas surrounding Sihanoukville. For a more relaxed afternoon, you can spend time on one of the beautiful beaches.

    What’s more, with a network of international volunteers in Cambodia with you, you can decide if you want to spend your free time exploring independently or in a group.

    Afhentning i lufthavnen i Phnom Penh International Airport

Once your passport has been stamped, you’ll collect your luggage and exit into the arrivals area. A member of Projects Abroad staff will be easily visible, waiting for you behind the barrier with a Projects Abroad sign.

    Our staff will have organised everything from the moment you arrive at Phnom Penh International Airport, and the cost of your pickup is included in your programme fees. Depending on the time of your arrival, you’ll either travel directly to our office, or you’ll head straight to your accommodation. Both of these trips are a 30 minute drive. However, the length of this trip can change depending on traffic.
