In the last 10 years, Cambodia has remarkable urban development, which has affected the aesthetics, the environment, the identity of the city, the population, and the traditional arts and culture. Through this current of change, how can we balance this development and the various sections and those affected by this to develop in a comfortable way and value of city? Who should have a voice or participate in this development process? How can everyone contribute to the better of the future of Cambodia through your possibilities and means? .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaker: Hun Sokagna<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I hold an academic background in Architecture from Royal University of Fine Arts in 2016 and a genuine passion for urban heritage and conservation, focusing on preserving colonial architecture and post-independence New Khmer Architecture <\/em>in Cambodia. In 2016, my team was awarded the second prize for a competition to reimagine the space around Phnom Penh\u2019s main Post Office. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since 2016, I have worked as a tour guide for Khmer Architecture Tours<\/a>, an award-winning tour group which takes tourists on architectural trails around Phnom Penh. I have contributed to national and international efforts to document and record Cambodia\u2019s architectural masterpieces (eg. The Vann Molyvann Project<\/a> and Genealogy of the Bassac area of Phnom Penh), and I am currently working on documenting Phnom Penh\u2019s cinemas since the colonial era through the Roung Kon project<\/a>. Moreover, I have participated in numerous workshops promoting sustainable architecture to regional and international knowledge sharing, such as Old Cities, New Challenges (OCNC) <\/a>in Penang, Malaysia in October 2018, organized by the Getty Conservation Institute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
