The two-day event brought together international technology experts to train about 100 non-governmental organisation staff in Cambodia.
The conference’s main theme was capacity building through youth empowerment, a process that enabled young people to gain the necessary skills to make decisions and make a difference, the Press release said, adding that it would address the needs of NGOs that operated in the fields of education, entrepreneurship, women’s issues, media, civic engagement, and democracy building.
Speaking at the conference, US Ambassador to Cambodia William E. Todd said Cambodia’s economy was growing and technology was very important to connect more people with society for better economic development.
Cambodia’s ICTs see remarkable progress in recent years. According to the latest data of the ministry of posts and telecommunication, there were 30 Internet service providers serving some 1,86 million users as of last year.— Xinhua.
