Along with the visit, it must enable peer-to-peer interaction by mutual learning between the host universities and the guest. It must pass the opportunity to learn and get inspired by the PhD program/courses in EU Partners institutions in order to improve it in Cambodia, and eventually launch a joint Master or PhD program.
