The final winners will be anounced at this years summit, taking place from July 23rd to 25th in London. As a shortlisted project (and potential winner) Tiny Toones will receive significant support to help us grow and to continue inspiring and educating some of the poorest children in Phnom Penh.

We are delighted to reveal this year’s shortlist, which comes after many hours of deliberation from more than 25 experts in their field. To be chosen from more than 300 entries for a place on this shortlist represents a fantastic achievement on the part of all these projects.”
