Ponlok Chomnes is proud to spotlight our partners—CDRI and SheThinks Network—who are representing Cambodia this week at the Australasian AID Conference in Canberra, Australia. Their participation brings Cambodian perspectives and lived experiences to an international audience of researchers, policymakers, and development practitioners. 

As part of their visit, the delegation will also meet with Australian institutions in Sydney to build new networks, exchange knowledge, and learn from Australia’s development and research ecosystem. 

Presentation Topics at the Conference: 

  • Dr. Raksmey Ang, Research Fellow from CDRI
    “Strengthening systems for inclusive climate-resilient water, sanitation and hygiene services in Cambodia” 
  • Ms. Phoury Bun, REDD+ Research & Impact Advisor, WCS, and Vice President of SheThinks Network
    “Whose Change Counts? Rethinking Development Evaluation Through Most Significant Change in Cambodia’s Keo Seima Wildlife Sanctuary REDD+ Project” 
  •  Ms. Pirom Khiev, Research Fellow, CDRI, and member of SheThinks Network
    “Impact Evaluation of the AGROW Project in Cambodia: Methodological Insights from a Mixed-Methods Approach” 

We wish our partners a successful week of learning, sharing, and strengthening connections. Thank you for elevating Cambodian research and policy dialogue on the international stage!
