The Kep Children’s Writers Festival Cambodia



Our motive is to initiate an event over one week in Kep Cambodia that is a celebration of children’s writing. with an ongoing benefit that encourages Cambodian and international children’s authors and illustrators to engage in the reading of their work , daily workshops , masterclasses and skills exchange. We would like to use the other writers festivals that currently exist as a model, but with the difference being this events principal focus is children’s literature. 3 achieved by bringing 10 successful authors/illustrators from outside the country to engage in performances and workshops over a 7 day period. 4 to set up a project based learning framework where ‘effective applied learning and communication is the result” 5 to provide opportunity to enhance outcomes leading to effective communication through “practitioner” mentor based teaching. 6 By setting up a practise model, our intention is to set precedents that can be easily followed and for the event to then be ongoing on an annual basis. 7 Give young aspiring Cambodian and Australian children’s writers and illustrators the opportunity to develop through cultural exchange a vision of themselves in the Asia Pacific region. 8 We seek to create an annual event that will attract Primary school teachers and librarians and other interested parties from outside the country to travel to Cambodia and thereby establish forums for the free exchange of ideas and skills between Cambodians with the central theme being children’s literature. That includes both traditional folklore and contemporary stories. OUTCOMES AND BENEFITS Why Kep? Kep is located at 152 km South from Phnom Penh, 24 km from the Vietnamese border, on the coast of Cambodia and bordering the Gulf of Siam. Kep (ខេត្តកែប) literally: “Saddle of the Horse” is the smallest province with 336 km2 with a population of 40,280 inhabitants. After French colonial rule, with the Independence in 1953 Prince Norodom Sihanouk assured Kep’s status as the “Saint-Tropez of South-East Asia”. Cambodian people built villas influenced by the Modern architecture Movement, in which Le Corbusier was widely concerned, after World War II. But, the existence of this chic littoral lasted less than twenty years. The Vietnam War and the Khmer Rouge Regime didn’t spare homes and people in Kep. Peace returned, in a still developing country, the city now looks to the future. By staging the event in Kep, we can stimulate the local economy and gain support from the local business population which will help ensure the project’s longevity. Having the event in such a small place we can help maintain focus around the daily activities of the festival. We envisage that the event would take place during the low tourist season (October-November). With daily schedule of workshops and readings taking place in the local hotels, the schools and the sailing club. We believe by linking mutual benefit and aspiration in this way we can create a learning environment that will provide an event of significance that may have long term benefits well beyond our present imaginings. Lastly , that the festival would cover the costs of each of the authors and illustrators travel, accommodation and transport to and from Cambodia and expenses All box office receipts for the event will be distributed to the local schools in Kep.
