Important update on CHSS activities in Cambodia 

Following a decision by the Swedish funding authorities, CHSS is no longer able to transfer project funds directly to Cambodian national institutions. As a result, the Royal University of Phnom Penh (RUPP), which has served as the CHSS Hub in Cambodia during Phase I of the project, will not continue in this role during the next phase of implementation.
