Yesterday, Chargé d'Affaires Bridget Collier joined the Australian Alumni Association of Cambodia (AAA-C) to open the Professional Development Series workshop, focused on key socio-economic challenges for Cambodia as well as topics relevant to professional development.

We heard from our alumni leaders, representatives of the Cambodia Australia Partnership for Resilient Economic Development (CAPRED) and the private sector. H.E. Som Chamnan, Secretary of State, Ministry of Labour and Vocational Training, also presented on the importance of leadership and having a growth mindset in contributing to national development.

The event involved collaboration between the AAA-C, CAPRED, AusCham Cambodia and Australia Awards Cambodia.

Australia is proud of the contribution Australian alumni make in areas critical to Cambodia’s ongoing socio-economic development.
