Support Inclusion Advocacy
Advocate Inclusion
We proudly support Beautiful Life Organisation’s mission to advocate for inclusion.
A locally registered NGO based in Siem Reap, Cambodia, envisions a world that embraces and celebrates diversity. Its mission is to create safe spaces for LGBTIQ+ individuals, where they can feel comfortable, included,accepted, and celebrated.
Empowering Self-Expression and Equality for All
Beautiful Life Organisation strives to create inclusive and safe spaces for individuals with diverse sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, and sexual characteristics (SOGIESC), commonly known as LGBTIQ+ individuals. Their mission focuses on providing education, fostering empathy, and advocating for equality, ensuring everyone is valued and respected.
Through community events, resources, and ongoing support, BLO works toward a world where people can fully express themselves without fear of judgment, discrimination, or persecution, ultimately envisioning a society where safe spaces are no longer necessary.
Educational scholarships are provided to Khmer LGBTIQ+ individuals, who often face discrimination and bullying that leads to higher drop-out rates and homelessness. These scholarships have supported studies in fields such as English, Professional Health Counselling, and Tourism at various institutions in Cambodia.
