I am impressed by the Liger approach to learning, which can be characterized as a truly student-centered, integrated and project-based paradigm. This approach to the acquisition of knowledge has enabled young learners to learn the skills of the twenty-first century, notably critical thinking, problem-solving and working in a team. I believe that the academic rigor and discipline at Liger will leave an indelible legacy for many Cambodian learners now and in years to come.

Minister for Education, Youth and Sport
I am truly pleased and proud of the publication of The Geography of Cambodia that was created and developed by the students of Liger Leadership Academy. The research and interviews conducted with local communities showcase authentic Khmer experiences and stories. These interviews have helped students become more socially-conscious citizens and have motivated them to find creative solutions to problems within their country.
Her Excellency Phoeurng Sackona
Minister of Culture and Fine Arts
Liger’s combination of world-class education, experiential projects, community involvement, and student engagement in external projects is surely unmatched in Cambodia and likely unsurpassed anywhere in the world. Besides their obvious academic preparation, I am most impressed with the positive, fun, can-do attitude and work ethic of these developing leaders. These students will have a tremendous impact on the future of Cambodia.

We at World Renew have found our work with Liger to be a powerful approach for relevant, sustainable development in Cambodia. The work they have done together has not only taught the rural youth research, critical thinking and project management skills but it has led to effective interventions in communities to address issues such as drug addiction, poor nutrition, health promotion and improving sense of community.

Liger Leadership Academy offers world-class learning experiences which challenge the students in a meaningful way. The students have access to great local and international teachers who actively encourage them to follow their educational and career dreams. More importantly, the students are constantly challenged to improve and in a safe and caring environment make mistakes and learn from them. Very few schools in Cambodia prepare a student, as well as Liger do, for the ever-changing and evolving workplace of the future.

Liger offers a fantastic opportunity for children from all around Cambodia to develop independence and become empowered to create positive change in their communities.
During each of my visits to Liger I have been struck by their strong focus on STEM based learning, evidenced by their impressive robotics and innovation programs.
