Listening to Voices of the Khmer Rouge Cadres and the Local Residents
1-3 September, 2017
The study tour organized by CICP facilitated by the the support of APR2P was completed successfully in early September 2017, with the participation of twentyfour individuals representing a diverse cross-section of local civil society. Participants included members of the media, academics, and most importantly university students and young professionals. This field trip, which was proposed after the “2nd National Dialogue on R2P and Atrocities Prevention” in August 2017, fittingly built directly on the outcomes and recommendations as to “next steps” from that event as regards building support for R2P in the kingdom. It is the last group mentioned above, the younger generation of Cambodians who in most cases have little to no memory of the realities of the atrocities committed by the Khmer Rouge regime, who are especially vital for the future institutionalization of the R2P norm in Cambodia and comprised the majority of participants.
