Many authors, professors, students, and other scholars from Cambodia and overseas have worked with DC-Cam in the past ten years. Some receive financial support from their universities while in Cambodia and others donate their services. In many instances, we are able to provide visiting scholars with translation and logistics support for their research.

Although interested scholars from any field may apply to work at DC-Cam, we most frequently host experts in the fields of history, law, religion, documentation, cataloging and preservation, and information technology.

DC-Cam believes that voluntary service is one of the most effective factors in the success of any non-governmental organization. To date, we have had the opportunity to host over 1,000 volunteers at our center.

All of our Cambodian staff begin working at the Center as volunteers for a period of six months to a year (part of this period is unpaid and part with a small stipend). If their work is successful, we are often able to offer them full-time employment. Competency in the English language is required for volunteers at DC-Cam.

We also enjoy the support of volunteers from abroad. Experts in history, document cataloguing, law, editing and writing, museum studies, computers, fundraising, and other fields are welcome. Most of our volunteer work is produced off-site because of space constraints, although several of our volunteers have worked for the Center in Phnom Penh in recent years.
