Center for Khmer Studies (CKS)


Overview
Founded in 1999, the Center for Khmer Studies (CKS) is an international, non-governmental organization supported by a consortium of universities, organizations, scholars and individuals. CKS is registered with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Cambodia and incorporated in the United States as a tax-exempt institution under article 501 (c) 3 of the Internal Revenue Code.

CKS is the first and only member institution of the Council of American Overseas Research Centers (CAORC) in Southeast Asia. Its programs are based in two offices in Cambodia: CKS’s headquarters in Siem Reap-Angkor and in the capital, Phnom Penh. CKS also maintains an administrative office in New York City and a support office in Paris, Les Amis du Centre d’Etudes Khméres where it is registered as an Association Loi 1901.

The Center for Khmer Studies’ (CKS) mission is to support research, teaching and public service in the social sciences, arts and humanities as they relate to Cambodia. We aim to connect Cambodian scholars, students and artists with their international colleagues for the purpose of fostering understanding of Cambodia and Southeast Asia.
