Cambodia, Australia Continue Collaboration to Promote Gender Equality and Women’s Empowerment

Cambodia and Australia continue to work together to ensure gender equality and women’s empowerment through the Australia Awards Scholarships.
The continued collaboration was reaffirmed in the Linking Women to a World of Opportunities Workshop held here on Thursday under the presidency of H.E. Dr. Ing Kantha Phavi, Cambodian Minister of Women’s Affairs and the H.E. Justin Whyatt, Australian Ambassador to Cambodia.
According to the Australian Embassy in Phnom Penh’s news release, the workshop promoted stories of inspirational Cambodian women, as well as explored the opportunities for women to study in Australia through Australia Awards Scholarships.
The workshop also aims to share information, experiences and key methods to civil servants in order to encourage more female civil servants to apply and get the scholarships.
