Volunteer in Northeast Thailand, Isaan, on the Lao border.
Northeast Thailand is one third of Thailand and people speak Isaan, Lao. This is a poor region where young villagers leave for jobs in the South or abroad.
This is where Openmind Projects once started, some 20 years ago, to help village children, to use computers and learn English. We called it ‘IT in Isaan‘.
