Abstract

“International standards in higher education and research” cover, in fact, a set of “tools” developed in different countries and in different times aiming to answer the demands of modern societies from their education system. This article starts with a discussion of the rationale behind these international standards and the organizational tools that can facilitate their implementation. Our observations on the Cambodian higher education system seem to point to the necessity to develop new implementation tools answering the “how” question even if many institutional tools are included in the large arsenal of decrees and sub-decrees already adopted. The second part of the article starts with these observations, considers how they can give rise to some fragilities in the Cambodian higher education system, and proposes some practical measures that aim to alleviate them.
