The project

The project

In 2009, the world has reached a very sad milestone - more than one billion men, women and children know what it's like to go to bed hungry. That's why we, Lionel and Laurent, have decided to take action.

Together we'll be cycling 1000km from Phnom Penh all the way to Bangkok to raise awareness for the fight against hunger. Our journey will take us through Cambodia, where the World Food Programme is on the ground providing vital food to some of the world's most vulnerable people.

Why cycling Cambodia?

· To federate donations in order to help the WFP in its activities.

· To meet its rural populations, witness to their difficulties and the help they receive through your donations.

· Slow and respectful means of transport, the bicycle allows a more direct and faster contact with the local population and its culture.
