Программа по окружающей среде и устойчивому развитию

At this award-winning community forest in Kaeng Krachan, students participate in the Tree Bank project, measuring carbon stocks, shooting seed bombs into the surrounding hillside for reforestation, rafting the Phetchaburi River to audit the riparian zone, and producing organic fertilizer and sustainable charcoal.

Working with the Tom Yum Project community in Kui Buri, students plant elephant-resistant crops including chili, lemongrass, and galangal, and assist in constructing and maintaining beehive fences, biological barriers that protect both wild elephants and local farmers without harmful deterrents.

Students conduct a structured beach clean and marine debris survey, categorising waste by material type and probable origin, and participate in beach forest reforestation by planting indigenous sea pine and salt-tolerant species to prevent coastal erosion and restore shorebird nesting habitat.

Students travel to the buffer zones surrounding Kui Buri National Park to inspect and maintain beehive fences, construct artificial salt licks inside the park boundary, and learn how landscape management outside a national park is as vital as the conservation work within it.

Students assemble small-scale solar circuits, conduct community energy audits, and learn how a rural sub-district achieved 100% electricity independence through a decentralised solar grid at this UN-nominated model for renewable energy self-sufficiency.

Students engage in organic harvesting, plant seasonal seedlings, produce bio-fertilizers from the farm’s livestock, and conduct energy audits of the site’s solar arrays and wind turbines at this experimental farm and renewable energy demonstration site.

Students physically construct check-dams in degraded forest land to trap moisture and prevent erosion, and assist in the propagation of hog deer for reintroduction into the wild at this royal project focused on forest rehabilitation and water conservation.

Students conduct a structured waste audit along the coastline, categorising plastics by polymer type and manufacturer to identify waste leakage patterns, before participating in sorting and upcycling workshops as part of Hua Hin’s active zero waste campaign.

Students construct coral nursery frames, attach coral fragments under the supervision of marine biologists, and assist in cleaning artificial reefs and monitoring giant clam rehabilitation at one of the Gulf of Thailand’s most advanced marine conservation sites.

Students cultivate sea grape seaweed in earthen ponds, assist in abalone and milkfish breeding, and monitor the circular waste system where by-products from one species become nutrients for another at this royal zero-waste aquaculture initiative.

Students manage live feed nurseries, assist in the breeding and nursing of red snapper and sea bass, and conduct aquaculture water quality analysis, learning how sustainable fisheries science supports food security at this Kasetsart University marine research facility.

Students conduct water quality testing across lagoon and constructed wetland systems and participate in waste decomposition workshops converting solid waste into organic compost at this world-renowned royal nature-based wastewater treatment site.

Students participate in solar energy training, wind power workshops, and mangrove restoration at this major renewable energy and coastal ecology hub, releasing seedlings into degraded coastal areas to revive local biodiversity alongside conservation professionals.

Students prepare seedlings, plant young trees in intertidal mudflats, and survey biodiversity along a kilometre of elevated boardwalk at one of Thailand’s first restored mangrove forests, learning how coastal forests protect shorelines and store carbon.
