Women Empowerment through Seaweed Social Business in Southern Thailand: A Path to Resilience and Community Strength

28 November 2024, In Southern Thailand, women's empowerment is becoming an increasingly important focus, particularly in light of the region's unique cultural and socio-economic landscape. While the southern border provinces face distinct challenges, there are many opportunities for women to play a vital role in economic and community development. Efforts to overcome traditional gender roles and cultural stigmas are helping create a more inclusive environment where women can actively contribute to society. These initiatives are supported by a growing recognition of the importance of women's leadership and the value they bring to both local and regional progress.
