Up to 62 government’s institutions that are KOICA’s current partners hosting Korea Overseas Volunteers will meet at “The 2010 Host Organization Meeting” on Friday, October 22, 2010 at Imperial Garden Villa and Hotel in Phnom Penh and spend the whole day finding better way to boost KOICA’s Korea Overseas Volunteers program in Cambodia.


The purpose of this meeting is to collect every single idea which is indispensible for upgrading Korea Overseas Volunteers Program in Cambodia to be effective, efficient and extensive and to become a program that provide significant contribution to the development effort of Royal Government of Cambodia. During the meeting, all participants will be given the floor to share their best practices and constructive ideas with KOICA and other participants for the improvement of their respective sectors.


The 62 participants are from local and national government’s institutions under 5 ministries: Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports; Ministry of Health; Ministry of Rural Development; Ministry of Labor and Vocational Training; and Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries; from 18 capital and provinces across Cambodia.


Be noted that since 2003, KOICA has been dispatching up to 241 Korean volunteers to Cambodia to mostly work voluntarily for local institutions of Royal Government of Cambodia. They come to share expertise, knowledge, and experience in order to make practical contributions to the socio-economic development in Cambodia. Moreover, those volunteers are the important part of Korea's grant aid program, since they strengthen the impact of Korea's foreign aid, and enhances mutual understanding between Korea and its partner countries by expanding opportunities for Korean people to take part in Korea’s growing development assistance programs.
