Empowering Thai youths through drama education and life coaching sessions

 

 

The venture targets 30 Thai youths aged 9 to 15 and their parents, who are affected by school closures or government-led housing relocations in Kowloon City.

It consists of three core components. Firstly, drama education creates an inclusive space for creative expression and collaboration, fostering social inclusion and integration into the wider society among the participants. Secondly, life coaching sessions feature guest speakers, including influential KOLs of diverse race who excel in their respective fields, inspiring the students to aspire to success in various domains. Lastly, parent coaching sessions equip parents with the knowledge to make informed decisions about their children's academic journey, enhancing their parenting skills.

The venture aims to boost participants' confidence, communication skills, and social integration while addressing and tackling racial discrimination. By promoting holistic development, it strives to break the cycle of limited opportunities and empower the Thai youths to pursue a brighter future.
