The Royal University of Phnom Penh (RUPP) has worked with the Child Rights Foundation (CRF) to put Research Findings into Policy Implications and Actions
Abstract
The question ‘Why are universities engaging in the conduct of research?’ has been widely asked by practitioners. This question is attached with doubts and the university’s key role in putting the research findings into policy, planning, and action processes. Most people have only learned that universities conduct academic research, use results for knowledge advancement, and create concepts and theories. Some people even seriously say that the publication of university research work is only displayed on library shelves. As Cambodia’s oldest public university and leading higher education institution, the Royal University of Phnom Penh (RUPP) promotes high-quality teaching and research practices to serve the community. The Policy on Research Development and Innovation (2020-2024) aims to be Cambodia’s leading university in applied and academic research.
