UNICEF says its new representative Rana Flowers
presented her letter of accreditation on Monday to Ouch Borith,
Secretary of State at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International
Cooperation.
Flowers was previously UNICEF representative in Mongolia for three years, a statement said. Before that, she was UNICEF representative in Belize for four years.
The statement said Flowers joined UNICEF as a consultant in 1994 and then served in the Planning/Evaluation and Communication Divisions in New York and the Regional Office for Latin America and the Caribbean. Before that, the Australian spent more than 10 years working on child development and rights issues in Australia and Britain.
Flowers said she looked forward to "continuing UNICEF's close collaboration and cooperation with the Royal Government of Cambodia and other partners, to build on the successes in reducing child and maternal mortality and enhancing access to education for all."
Cambodia’s recent development indicates "what strong government commitment, increased government investment and ownership for development can achieve with partner collaboration," she said.
Flowers said she would support the government "to improve the access and quality of services at sub-national levels, to keep children protected from disease through improved nutrition and sanitation, and keep children safely within their families and away from institutional settings."
