Merging the Power
of the “9 Tools”
to Cultivate Thai Children
into “Quality Citizens”
From its inception, the Yuvabadhana Foundation aimed to provide every Thai child with the opportunity to access quality education. Today, through the collaborative efforts and generosity received from various sectors, the foundation has expanded its mission to assist children and youth further. This expansion aims to develop their full physical, intellectual, and emotional potential.
Currently, the foundation has directly assisted underprivileged children and youth and collaborated with community networks through the implementation of the “9 Tools” in various projects, including
9 Tools:
Creating Opportunities for Thai Children
Recognizing that early childhood development can enhance a child’s learning potential up to 12 times, we emphasize creating a strong foundation for children. Through Active Learning methods and collaboration among teachers, medical professionals, and parents, we aim to support the holistic development of every child. We strive to ensure that all children experience positive physical and emotional growth, fostering a joyful and healthy environment for their overall well-being.
Good nutrition is the foundation for healthy growth, and FOOD FOR GOOD is dedicated to addressing nutritional challenges in children. Our commitment is to ensure that every child receives adequate, diverse, and sustainable nutrition efficiently. Through financial support, knowledge-building for relevant personnel, and a focus on creating sustainable practices, our efforts go beyond converting donations into meals. It is about ‘building pathways’ that consistently enable the provision of quality meals.
Financial support is a crucial factor that can determine whether a child can pursue an educational path. Yuvabadhana Foundation provides continuous scholarship support to ensure that children have the opportunity to study until completing grade 12 or vocational certificate level. Additionally, we provide care and guidance to ensure they can remain in the education system until graduation without interruption.
Cultivating moral and ethical values in schools through collaboration among the government, private sector, and stakeholders, including students, teachers, administrators, and the community. Emphasizing knowledge dissemination through moral projects and translating it into practical actions, we aim to drive positive behavioral changes. Our ultimate goal is to contribute to the creation of virtuous individuals for the betterment of our communities and nation.
Collaborative Network
Teach for Thailand provides opportunities for individuals from diverse professional backgrounds who are interested in addressing issues within the education system. Participants gain understanding and hands-on experience by becoming ‘Leaders of Change (Fellow)’, teaching in underprivileged schools for a two-year period. This initiative aims to inspire knowledge and enhance skills, fostering the growth of children into well-rounded individuals capable of creating a promising future.
The Digital Mathematics and Science Project by Learn Education introduces innovative teaching methods with technology and digital media in the fields of science and mathematics. This project employs a blended learning approach, combining digital resources with traditional teaching methods to enhance the effectiveness of both teaching and learning. The initiative emphasizes the importance of maintaining the teacher-student interaction while leveraging technology for an enriched educational experience.
The Digital English Language Project “Winner English” by Edutech Innovation introduces a modern learning and teaching platform for the English language. This platform empowers students to design their own learning experiences creatively and enjoyably. It serves as a crucial tool for educators to incorporate active learning strategies, ensuring that students build a solid foundation in English language skills and effective communication.
The a-chieve Self-Discovery and Career Exploration Project recognize the importance of not only academic learning but also the exploration of oneself and the selection of suitable career paths for children. To address this, a-chieve has developed an environment for both teachers and students. It aims to create a safe space and advisory platform for teachers, allowing children to explore their potential comprehensively. Through this initiative, students gain self-awareness, discover careers in their surroundings, analyze connections, and design a life that aligns with their strengths. This holistic approach aims to foster happy and resilient internal growth.
Facilitating Inclusivity and Fundraising Initiatives
“Creating a Sustainable Inclusivity and Fundraising Platform”
Initiating a platform that promotes sustained inclusivity and fundraising for the greater public good, the prototype aims to collect donations of high-quality items to transform them into funds for community benefits. This initiative not only contributes to societal welfare but also aids in environmental conservation by reducing waste and promoting the reuse of goods. The ‘Share and Care’ store, pioneered by the Yuvabadhana Foundation in 2000, marked the inauguration of this service, primarily focused on fundraising for educational opportunities for underprivileged children.
