On October 6, The Asia Foundation and the Thai Fund Foundation conducted a trial run of our new online marketing training materials with 15 community leaders. We had a lot riding on this training: these local leaders were the gateway to our target beneficiaries, small businesses in northeastern Thailand.

  1. Hi AsiaFoundation,
    Great initiative, this is an important approach to built literacy in both business development skills and making use of digital opportunities. I like the idea how it is also used as a strategy to deal with the impact of COVID-19 in particular for young people.
    We would love to learn more of your training approaches.
    Thanks for sharing this innovation.
    Cheers
    Martin
