“My volunteer experiences solidified my belief in lifelong learning. It goes beyond just my field of study and equips me with new skills and knowledge, fostering personal and professional growth. Participating in diverse activities across various locations has undoubtedly accelerated my development”

Thanks to CORE-19 project, which provided us with vegetables seeds and the equipment to build a greenhouse. We have seen a significant difference in our lives. The greenhouse allows us to grow vegetables year-round, regardless of the weather, and it prevents our produce from rotting or getting burnt.

Thanks to a new greenhouse, my vegetables crops are thriving. I mainly cultivate rice for a living and grow vegetables to supplement my income. Over the past two years, the rising cost of living has had a direct impact on us farmers who already earn low wages. The income generated from selling rice barely covers our daily expenses. Although I do cultivate vegetables, it doesn’t offer a stable income due to the impact of unpredictable weather conditions, which greatly affect our production.

Youth volunteers from the Huam Jai Asasamak Association and Phan-Thin Social Enterprise facilitated activities and guided 30 students from the target group in exploring and studying the environment. These activities included studying birds, plants, soil, aquatic animals, and water quality. The goal was to create an understanding of the environment’s benefits and how to protect it.

Training on topic: facilitator skills on environmental education activity for 20 young people to build capacity and soft skills in leading environmental education, organized by Huam Jai Asasamak Association, and Phan-thin Social Enterprise
