Group Saving Project Continues in Battambang

On August 9, the Battambang team of HFH Cambodia conducted a follow-up meeting with the appointed committee for the Group Saving Project. 14 core persons, including 6 females, from 3 villages – Chamkar Russey, 7 Makara and O’kcheay villagers, Prek Preah Sdach Commune, Battambang – attended the meeting to share experience and update information related to the group. The gathering provided a venue for exchange of thoughts and discussion of issues and solutions pertaining to the savings program. The meeting also allowed the group to develop effective and efficient plans to manage the savings process. The Municipal Technical Working Group, District Authority, Village Chief, representatives from the communities and HFH Cambodia joined the meeting.

This activity is part of the continuous efforts of the program to serve families in Battambang along with its housing and tenure security interventions following the successful completion of the pilot project on Strengthening Civil Society-Government Partnership to Deliver Land Tenure Security.
