Citizen Advisor Training and Outreach

Kampong Cham Training Group, October 2007
Each round of the project trains five groups of 30 citizen advisors (CA’s) at a four day training course on victim and witness protection and participation.  Each citizen advisor then holds a ½ day workshop in 16 different villages.  If 30 villagers attend each session, then information is being exchanged with over 57,000 rural Cambodians during each round of the project. The first round of training and outreach is focused on ‘Victim Participation at the ECCC’.

The outline of dates for the rounds include: Round One - October 2007-March 2008; Round Two - March 2008-August 2008; Round Three - August 2008-January 2009; and Round Four - January 2009-May 2009.

The first round of training and outreach is focused on ‘Victim Participation at the ECCC’.
