Greenway Thailand

 

The MLTV projects

 

A : Presentation

 

PSF/Greenway started to develop mid and long term voluntary service placements in 2001. Since the beginning we have been able to host volunteers all over Thailand , in different centres and projects. Nowadays our MLTV programme is concentrated in the Roiet Province , in the North East of Thailand. Activities take place in Denrat village and its surroundings and they are focused on the following main areas:

 

-          Education and teaching

-          Environmentalism and agriculture

-          Social, children and youth

 

Main aims of the MLTV programme are:

  1. Providing on going support for community development to the Foundation;
  2. Creating a stable and closer relationship with the local communities, both for the Foundation and the volunteer;
  3. Building bridges between the international community, Thai citizens, Thai institutions and the NGO sector all over the country;
  4. Stimulating the educational development of Thai youngsters through their participation to equivalent projects.

The MLTV programme is open to everybody aged 20 or more. No specific experience or educational background is required.
