My main issue has been how Cambodia articulates their underst anding of discrimination in relation to child health. My study has not included the situation of children with HIV/AIDS or disabled children. The conclusion of this work is that the government of Cambodia ignores the problem with discrimination in relation to child health. By ignoring the problem they do not show the understanding of it, neither the priority the subject should have. (Less)
