We are proud to share the release of the Yunus Thailand 2024 Annual Report, a reflection of our continued dedication to fostering social innovation, empowering communities, and driving sustainable change throughout Thailand.

On June 25-26, 2024, Yunus Thailand's Managing Director, Callum Mackenzie, alongside Seaweed Social Business project manager and seaweed specialist ;Nittayapond Nipatsant and Penpitcha Kimtin, and the Yunus Center AIT (YCA), participated in the International Conference on SDGs through the 3Zeros Approach and Practice at Albukhary International University (AIU) in Alor Setar, Malaysia.

The workshop convening the network of Community-led Organisations providing HIV/AIDS services across Thailand was held on September 26, 2024, at Century Park Hotel, Ratchaprarop, in collaboration with The U.S. President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), USAID, The  Meeting Targets and Maintaining Epidemic Control (EpiC) project, the Committee of Thai NGO Coalition on AIDS (TNCA). The event gathered over 75 participants from across the country including international organisations.

In 2024, Yunus Thailand partnered with the Canadian Fund for Local Initiatives (CFLI) from Embassy of Canada to Thailand | Ambassade du Canada en Thaïlande and Global Seaweed Coalition to kick start the transformative pilot project, "Seaweed Social Business," in Satun, Southern Thailand. This initiative has empowered local women, alleviated poverty, and fostered community resilience by equipping them with tools and knowledge to cultivate Caulerpa racemosa var corynephora, a lesser-known yet highly sustainable and nutritious feather seaweed species. Over the past 11 months, the project has achieved remarkable milestones, with 50 women-led enterprises officially registered as seaweed entrepreneurs—further cementing its role as a catalyst for change.
