BEAM/JUMP! Community Impact Project Implementation

As outcome of the BEAM/JUMP! Youth Leadership Conference: “Raising Lanterns of Chiang Mai,” which was held on 5-6 November 2016 in Chiang Mai, three groups of youth including Myanmar youth, Thai youth, and Thai ethnic youth worked together to implement community impact projects. The three winning projects aimed to improve educational access for migrant and refugee youth, educate traffic rules among migrants, and prevent dangerous mosquito borne illnesses through training. All of the projects were completed successfully on 27th July, 30th July, and 5th August, 2017 respectively.The project members were true change-makers who actively worked together to make a difference in their communities. Congratulations on doing such a great job while completing all of the community impact projects.
