Feedback trip to Phnom Penh in December 2009
Three Finnish Archietcture students from the Helsinki University of Technology - Noora Aaltonen, Sisko Hovila and Inari Virkkala - were presenting their book "Cambodia 2009" and the urban planning projects and ideas inside it in Phnom Penh in December 2009.
"During the trip we gave three presentations, at Royal University of Fine Arts (later RUFA), Baitong restaurant and at a community at the Boeung Kak lake, where we also organized a one-day workshop. Troughout the week we met with various stakeholders, made preparations for the community workshop and collected material for the coming TKK students.
We see the workshop at the Boeung Kak 20th community as the most successful outcome of the trip. We felt that our cleaning and recycling workshop was inspiring to the local residents as many locals joined the action spontaneously. We were astonished of the involvement of the participating students from RUFA (thank you all!) and extremely grateful for Sahmakum Teang Tnaut for their great contribution in organizing the whole day!"
