Our organization works to promote a wide range of human rights and human security issues throughout Thailand and Southeast Asia by serving as a civil society network through which community-based partner organizations share knowledge, strategies, and resources to work together for positive social change.

We work to strengthen the organizational capacity of network partners by providing them with information, skills and knowledge training, capacity building tools, logistical coordination, and other assistance adapted to each groupโ€™s particular needs. To best provide such services, we carry out field visits to partner communities on a regular basis, studying conditions on the ground and learning about peoplesโ€™ most pressing needs. All projects are developed out of these needs and through close collaboration with local communities.

In addition, we facilitate direct engagement between various community networks and organizations by applying our People-to-People (P2P) action approach, in which grassroots partners share knowledge, develop common agendas, and strategize on social action. Examples include community learning exchange programs, solidarity workshops, cross-border civil society exchanges, and peopleโ€™s monitoring of ASEAN developments.

In addition to providing horizontal links between grassroots partners throughout Thailand, we maintain working relationships with regional and international organizations and provide vertical channels for Thai civil society to engage with public officials at the national, regional, and international levels.
