Introduction

An American Corner is a joint partnership between the United States Embassy in Cambodia and a host institution, that promotes better cooperation and understanding between the United States and Cambodia through the exchange of open, accurate and factual information about the United States in a variety of formats.

There are currently four American Corners in Cambodia. The first one is located in Phnom Penh at Paññāsāstra University of Cambodia (PUC), the second one in Kampong Cham at University of Economics and Mangement, the third in Battambang at University of Management and Economics, and the last one is in Siem Reap at University of South-East Asia.

The American Corners are staffed by bilingual Cambodian personnel, who will be available to assist patrons interested in locating specific information about the United States.
