ACTED Thailand

ACTED has been present in Thailand since 2012, with bases in Bangkok and Mae Hong Son. Through both emergency and longer-term resilience building programming in Thailand and Myanmar, ACTED seeks to work towards its global strategy of achieving a Zero Exclusion, Zero Carbon, Zero Poverty world.

ACTED’s work in Thailand has focussed on supporting sustainable livelihoods and economic development, through integrated vocational training opportunities and a package to support access to income generation. In additional, ACTED works with civil society partners to implement emergency assistance to regufees on the border area while building the capacity of these partners to respond to the needs of vunerable populations through tailored capacity development programs.

However, in line with ACTED’s belief that – even in a crisis setting – every individual should be supported to achieve their creative and economic potential, all the emergency assistance we deliver in Thailand is implemented with a view towards restoring self-reliance to affected communities, and supporting them towards long-term recovery, right from the start of a crisis.
