About the Book
During a vacation trip to Cambodia in 1994, we fell in love with the country and its people. But we were especially touched by the impact on children in areas still controlled by the Khmer Rouge, almost twenty years after "Year Zero". Education and health care were rudimentary.
In 1999 we were lucky enough to find a way to help, via a school building and teacher training program started by Save the Children. From the early pilots, this is now a vibrant program covering hundreds of schools and thousands of children.
Our personal journey led us to other countries, meeting hundreds of children, many of whom are pictured in this book. We are pleased to donate proceeds of this book to Save the Children.

About the Creator
Mick Yates
United Kingdom
I am a documentary storyteller, and I believe that whilst life is always in motion, every moment creates a sense of place or personality. Having travelled and worked all over the world, my work is informed by the view that we are more the same than we are different - yet differences reveal our unique stories. Details matter. Research and collaboration are central to my practice, seeking rapport with and understanding of my subjects, whilst asking questions about who people are and what concerns them. My day job is a Board level consultant on the ethical and leadership implications of Big Data technology. Visiting Professor at the University of Leeds.
