The project “Build Capacity for Indigenous Youth and Create an Indigenous Audiovisual Archive through Wiki Tools in Cambodia” implemented by UNESCO Bangkok in partnership with Wikimedia Foundation and Bophana Audiovisual Resource Center directly benefitted 24 Indigenous youth from the Brao, Jarai, Kachok, Kreung and Tampuan Indigenous communities of Ratanakiri Province in Cambodia. Indigenous youth participants developed basic computer skills, as some were using a computer for the first time, and learned how to upload their own media works documenting their Indigenous language and culture onto the open access platform Wikimedia Commons, and contributed to Wikipedia pages on their Indigenous communities.
