Lessons Learned & Best Practices
Year: 2021Income Group: Upper middle incomeSource: VNR
Finding: The 2021 Thai VNR includes a chapter entitled "Views from All Sectors within Thai Society," which briefly presents the inputs provided by civil society and volunteer networks, youth, academia, and the private sector under three axis: Overall views on sustainable development, challenges, and recommendations.
Issue: Engaging vulnerable groups
Finding: Thailand combines different vulnerability causes among children to achieve a more complex understanding, and adjust policy responses. As a result, the Government established a system to inform teachers of the needs of their students. Teachers assume responsibility for helping them, preventing and reducing their out-of-school difficulties. This mechanism addresses children who are living in poverty, left behind, homeless, living in remote areas, must follow their parents to work, live with disabilities, or who have no permanent residence.
