About Humanity & Inclusion in Thailand
- Explosive Ordnance Risk Education: conducted towards the overall community, with a focus on at-high-risk groups including refugees willing to return to Myanmar implemented across all 9 temporary shelters in Tak, Mae Hong Son, Kanchanaburi, and Ratchaburi provinces;
HI started working in Thailand in 1982 and first focused its actions on the delivery of mobility and assistive devices to Cambodian and Burmese landmine victims, most of whom needed lower limb prostheses. Since 1998, the scope of projects broadened, and HI started providing physical rehabilitation services to persons with disabilities.
In Thailand, HI currently implements 3 projects:
- Disability and Social Inclusion (DSI): Inclusion of disability into a mainstream livelihood, vocational training and protection services providers, support of Self-Help Groups of persons with disabilities, and physical accessibility across all 9 temporary shelters; in Tak, Mae Hong Son, Kanchanaburi, and Ratchaburi provinces;
- Physical rehabilitation: Physiotherapy and occupational therapy-based services and provision of assistive technology; implemented across all 9 temporary shelters in Tak, Mae Hong Son, Kanchanaburi, and Ratchaburi provinces;
Context in which the project takes places
Under the Explosive Ordnance Risk Education (EORE) project, the team focuses on raising awareness about the dangers of explosive ordnances in outreach areas along the Thai-Myanmar border. This region has been greatly affected by political instability and conflict, resulting in a high risk of landmine and UXO (unexploded ordnance) accidents. To address these risks, the EORE project team has created the CPP short film project as a way to educate and inform the general population.
SCOPE AND OBJECTIVES OF CPP SHORT FILM
Objective
The overall objective of this CPP short film is to raise awareness about the risks associated with explosive ordnances among target communities. We aim to increase understanding of conflict preparedness and prevention strategies, teaching safe behaviors and emergency responses to minimize risks. Additionally, we seek to influence positive changes in attitudes and behaviors toward explosive ordnance risks and conflict situations.
