Mundo Exchange in Thailand
Currently, Mundo Exchange teams with Laekplian Lokgatat members to work on projects including teaching in public schools, working in local temples, developing community outreach projects, setting up community funds and preparedness for natural or man-made disaster, environmental awareness projects, and many more. Through the exchange of knowledge and cultural ways with international volunteers, Thais will learn more about community development, English language skills, business development, computer and technological skills, arts and educational training.
Mundo Exchange is helping to finance Laekplian Lokgatat upstart costs, members’ skill building, governmental fees and more, while funding local projects.
Laekplian Lokgatat – our Thai partner association
Founded 2006, the association is gaining more and more Thai members. The association got a huge piece of land donated and one of the tasks at the moment, beside the work with volunteers is the developmnt of this land into a garden and teaching center. Members are in the process of learning the skills necessary to work with and manage international volunteers.

Ain't nothing wring with being a mouse! 
Hey you guys, the website is really starting to look good. I told Dalyn that we have been working hard on a brochure here in the States for Mundo and have done quite a bit of editing on some of the website language. If you would like to see that, let me know…I love all the new pictures and updates on how the volunteering is going. We had some very enthusiastic students from Clark College wanting to come and talk part with Mundo in Thailand. One of them, a young man named Joey, will be writing you with interest in the internship or volunteering. He seemed to have great energy and spirit and has done lots of wonderful work in Vancouver with youth. He is really interested in business/infrastructure development. Just wnated to let you know. Take care. Joan
Nicely done guys!
Hats off to you.
Excellent post, keep up the good work. I know Chjul and the Ixil Triangle well. I was a guide/interpreter, resident in Guatemala for 9 years (1985-1994) before I moved back to El Salvador, now working in el Salvador on the ruta pazymemoria, cultural and ecotourism, restoration of villages and monuments damaged during El Salvador’s 12 year Civil War.
An article of mine on Cinquera, a village in Central America (one of
our pilot projects on Rural Ecotourism/Cultural & Historic sites here
in El Salvador) enjoy.
