Sreynoy’s journey

After returning to an accessible learning environment and completing Grade 12, Sreynoy continued into higher education at Angkor University. Her progress reflects determination, patience and a strong belief in the value of learning.

Alongside her university studies, she continues developing assistive technology, orientation and mobility, communication, problem-solving and 21st-century skills that support study, employment preparation and daily independence.

Taking greater responsibility

During the Semi-Independent Living Project year, Sreynoy’s primary focus is her academic studies. She will also take greater responsibility for study planning, transport, budgeting, shared household duties and everyday decisions while remaining connected to regular DYP guidance and follow-up.

“I define independence as the complete ability to manage my daily life, earn an independent income, resolve problems and make my own decisions.”
