Andy Hill, Schools for Children of Cambodia's Strategic Advisor, was voted onto the board of NGO Education Partnership (NEP, http://www.nepcambodia.org/), a membership organization of 75 NGOs working in the education sector, at the NEP annual general meeting on March 24. Andy will join representatives from World Education, Disability Action Council, World Vision, and Save the Children Norway to comprise the 2008 Board of Directors.
NEP plays a key role in coordinating efforts among NGOs, acting as a channel for dialogue and advocacy with Cambodia's Ministry of Education, and building the capacity of organizations working in the education sector.
SCC's representation on the board of NEP is expected to increase the visibility of SCC amongst other NGOs for the purpose of establishing partnerships and coordinating work and to establish close relationship with the Ministry of Education.
Andy Hill will serve an 8-month term.
