        COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT    
               
     

The Maddox Jolie-Pitt Foundation (MJP) has been implementing conservation and community development programmes in north-western Cambodia since 2003. In 2006, it officially launched the Millennium Development Goals (MDG) in Samlaut District (Battambang province). Health care, education, nutrition, infrastructure and conservation are all essential elements working together to fight poverty, disease, inequality and ignorance.
