The main interest of development agencies is to make sure that the assistance provided for a recipient country has a real impact and lead to an improvement of the standard of living of its citizens.

This is why UNESCO is working in strong partnership with line ministries of the Cambodian Government, other UN agencies, development banks, bilateral donors and local and international NGOs.
