Abstract

The Cambodia Development Research Forum (DRF) is a partnership of leading academic, research, and policy institutions in Cambodia. This synthesis report provides a summary of the key messages from more than 30 research papers presented at the Symposium. The papers address economic growth and issues in both public and private sectors. The pace of industrial diversification and economic modernisation will depend on how well the country can provide cost-effective infrastructure, a business-friendly investment climate, quality education and healthcare, and a socioeconomic environment conducive to gender equality and women’s empowerment.
