The goal of this University Partnership in Cooperation and Development (UPCD) project is to build institutional capacity and promote community economic development through increased access to quality continuing education and training in Cambodia, Laos and Thailand.
Community economic development is being promoted at Chulalongkorn University (Chula), the Royal University of Phnom Penh (RUPP) and the National University of Laos (NUOL) through increased access to quality continuing education and training relevant to the needs of adults and out-of-school youth, enabling them to participate actively in the social and economic growth of their communities.
What began as a project has now evolved into a variety of programs offered at Chula and RUPP’s Continuing Education Centers (CECs) and NUOL’s Continuing and Distance Education Center (CDEC), each of which are operating independently and successfully under the direction of our project partners.
