1.BACKGROUND

Passerelles Numériques (PN) is a non-profit organization dedicated to enabling highly disadvantaged youths, through their abilities and their commitment, to access education and technical and vocational training in the sector of Information Technology. We work to build strong employability which will allow them and their families to escape poverty in a sustainable way, and contribute to the social and economic development of their countries.

Established in Cambodia, the Philippines, Vietnam and Madagascar, Passerelles Numériques currently trains around 2900 students and employs around 100 people based in these three countries including a small team in France.

Passerelles Numériques Cambodia (PNC) was the first project to be launched in 2005, in Phnom Penh. PNC offers IT training programs such as Web Programming (WEP) and System and Network Administration (SNA), based on a holistic educative approach including technical and soft skills, and a personal development program. Today, PNC trains 151 students and 1,768 successfully completed their studies since 2005.

In addition to our training program, we are also working other projects including NomadLab. Nomadlab is our solution toward the digital divide issues in Cambodia by giving youth the access to digital tools with an offline solution to rural communities to support their digital literacy, digital skills development and their scholar education.
