We work with local people and other organisations to encourage full community participation.

In Laos we work with two local organisations in tried and trusted partnerships that have a sole aim of improving the lives and educational opportunities for rural and provincial communities.
Our main partner is Community Learning International (CLI) with whom we develop school infrastructure and who operate the Book Boats and Learning Centres that we fund. Our secondary partner, Volun-Tour Laos (VTL), work with us on community programmes that focus on village water, sanitation blocks and school improvements. |
