Leveraging Industry 4.0 : Digitalising On-Demand Services and Promoting Sustainable Transport in Urban Cambodia
In 2022 a team of AVI conducted a study on urban transportation in the capital city of Phnom Penh. This research utilized relevant theories and particular concepts to address the core national, regional, and international issues and focused on practical application – both actual and presumed – to resolve the transportation problems in the specific contexts of Cambodia.
The research is a well linked development agenda of Cambodia to improve living styles, affordable transport, road safety, and environmental conservation through digitization and sustainable transport. The research delivers quantitative and qualitative information about digitization and sustainable transport to promote Industry 4.0. The team engaged with a wide range of stakeholders who have the expertise and direct experiences in the area, such as City Bus operators, private operators, non-governmental Organizations (NGOs), and commuters in Phnom Penh.
As intended, the research findings are to be useful for contributing to the promotion of the implementation of the National Strategic Development Plan (2019−2023) and the implementation of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs): Goal 7. Affordable and clean energy, Goal 9. Industry, innovation, and infrastructure and Goal 11. Sustainable cities and communities.
