This webinar is a follow-up session from the July 18 information sharing and strategic planning webinar with Brad Adams of Human Rights Watch that provided new insight on how to Khmer community needs to proceed with advocacy work. This webinar session will allow the Khmer community to share their reactions to his July 18 proposals and to move towards the more “meaningful, effective, and systemic” improvements in the democracy and human rights picture for Cambodia that he suggested. In addition, further information will be provided at the session on the work of the proposed citizens-based independent fact-finding Commission of Inquiry on Cambodia that will hold its opening session on October 23, 2021, as the centerpiece for the Khmer community’s joint, coordinated observance of the Paris Peace Accords.
