It is a goal of Documentation Center of Cambodia to train a generation of young Cambodians to produce valuable research, and ultimately to publish books on a par with international scholarly standards. Our Research and Publications Project aims to: a) serve as a resource on the history of Democratic Kampuchea, b) produce scholarly publications, generate scholarly exchange, catalyze training, and create opportunities for our staff to pursue advanced degrees, c) provide a cross-check and confirmation of Khmer Rouge primary documents, and d) provide a broader overall understanding of the Democratic Kampuchea regime.
