For the second year, the USC Shoah Foundation Institute participated in “Conflict Resolution and Peace Research: Cambodia,” a summer undergraduate course offered through the USC School of International Relations’ Problems Without Passports program.

Problems Without Passports courses combine problem-based or inquiry learning research with field work. Students in “Conflict Resolution and Peace Research: Cambodia” received training at the Institute to prepare them for field research in Cambodia; the course culminated in a two-week trip to Cambodia, where the students conducted their own interviews with survivors of the Cambodian Genocide.
