Freedom of Expression and Academic Freedom

16-Mar-2012

Publication : Factsheet

Freedom of expression and academic freedom are both protected under provisions of domestic and international law. The recent decision by the Royal University of Law and Economics ("RULE") in Phnom Penh to issue a list of prohibited thesis topics to students seriously impinges upon both the right to academic freedom and the right to freedom of expression, and is the latest in a series of restrictions on freedom of expression in the Kingdom of Cambodia("Cambodia") .
