- Description
- An initial fact-finding mission aimed at narrowing down the areas of support drawn from the request submitted by the Ministry of Economy and Finance of Cambodia (MEF). Following activities resulted in a general mapping and assessment of the country’s social protection framework, which allowed to identify gaps and areas of improvement in coverage. Finally, a training on pension systems for MEF officials allowed EU experts to present different pension systems and how they are governed and regulated by line ministries. The actions, which mainly consisted in knowledge transfer and resulted in enhanced regulatory capacities for relevant personnel, saw the involvement of EU public experts from France, Germany, and Lithuania.
