EVERY GIRL.
EVERYWHERE.
FREE.
Protecting girls today. Preventing exploitation tomorrow.
For more than fourteen years, AusCam has partnered with girls and communities throughout Cambodia to create safer futures through protection, prevention and leadership opportunities.
Together, we are working towards a future where every girl has the opportunity to be safe, educated and free.
Equipping and empowering girls and young women so they are
protected and safe.
Our vision is for all girls everywhere, to be free from trafficking and exploitation.
Every girl deserves the opportunity to grow up feeling safe, supported and confident about her future.
Yet many girls face challenges that can increase their vulnerability to exploitation, including poverty, unsafe relationships, school dropout, online harms and limited opportunities.
Too often, support only begins once a girl is already in crisis.
At AusCam, we believe there is another way.
By protecting girls, preventing exploitation and empowering young women as leaders, we are helping create brighter futures before harm occurs.
Because every girl deserves the opportunity to thrive.
How we create change
Protecting girls is about more than responding to crisis.
It is about creating the conditions that help girls remain safe, connected and supported throughout their lives.
Everything we do is built around three simple commitments.
PROTECT
Supporting girls when they are unsafe.
PREVENT
Reducing the risks that can lead to exploitation before harm occurs.
LEAD
Equipping girls with the confidence, knowledge and opportunities to become leaders who strengthen their families, communities and future generations.
Support girls so they become young women doing remarkable things.
Alone we cannot stem the flood of this exploitation and the devastating effect it can have on young lives. However, with your support, we will develop and amplify the connections, courage, and creativity of young women equipped as a network of Safe Sisters to raise awareness, run campaigns, and advocate for safety.
It’s only with thousands of voices, reaching thousands of girls, and calling them to actively protect themselves and their communities that this threat will be overcome.
Stories That Matter
There’s a paradox at the heart of prevention. In the complex field of trafficking, exploitation, and online abuse of teen-girls, the most powerful work
