Projects are designed, built and maintained by the communities who receive support, using their local knowledge. Our approach achieves results which are high in impact, low in cost and sustainable. The vision of the Karen is a more self-sufficient future in which they can provide for their own basic needs.

 

Volunteer with The Karen Hilltribes in Thailand

Are you interested in working on real charity projects that help to empower local communities? Are you ready to be immersed in a completely new culture, live in a local community and work alongside the villagers in a challenging environment? The Karen Hilltribes Trust offers the volunteering experience you are looking for.

We work alongside the Karen people to develop and run sustainable projects that help local communities build a better future for themselves. Volunteers bring valuable input and are central to our charity ethos.
