This is one of the most disavantaged communities in Thailand. They are growing tremondously after the completion of my doctoral research . At the beginning of this research, no one really knew what sustainable livelihoods looked like. Through this research, the participants and their community found a livelihood that they desired. After the researcher withdrew from the community, they still continue improving their capabilties and pursuing a livelihood that they want to achieve. To find out more information about this community, please click the following link visit their website.
