More Information About this Project

Project Needs and Beneficiaries

Thailand has been struggling with economic and political instabilities throughout the decades. Strengthening the public sector and increasing civic participation has therefore become a crucial part for the creation of a stable future. YV in Thailand will support young people to generate solutions to social problems, by helping them lead and launch their own venture. We are gradually contributing to change the negative image that society has of young people.

Activities

YV supports youth by helping them address social issues in their communities. Youth form teams and create sustainable action plans that must be approved by a panel. Then, they receive seed money and technical support to launch their Venture Team.
