This Global Data Barometer Country profile for Cambodia provides a quick overview of the strengths and weaknesses with regards to data capabilities, governance, availability and impact, and in comparison with other countries in the region and globally.

Comparing with other lower-middle income countries reviewed, Cambodia scored quite low in the report. Despite this, there is evidence of civil servants training by the National Institute of Statistics that is part of a sustainable strategy plan, as well as a legal framework with force of law in terms of data protection. Cambodia does not show evidence of open data initiative and data management capabilities, although there are datasets on public finance and land data, which is available through NGO websites.
