Abstract

This chapter examines five systemic issues that are at the core of the development of Cambodia’s higher education sector. These are goal-oriented sector and university development strategy, transformative institutional leadership, strategic human resource management, strategic financial management, and achieving Goal 4.3 of the Sustainable Development Goals. A goal-oriented strategy is fundamental, with its implementation carefully monitored to ensure a focus on quality. Transformative institutional leadership is, therefore, necessary, as is the need for strategic human resource and financial management practices that support the strategy.
