Final Project Evaluation

Influencing nation-wide Safe and Resilient Schools in Thailand

 

  1. Project Background

Plan International Thailand will continue to implement new phases of Comprehensive School Safety Projects (or shortly called New Safe Schools) in September 2019 with funding supports from the Prudence Foundation (Hong Kong) and Prudential UK (UK). Both grants are expected to start in September 2019 and end in August 2022. The Safe Schools project aim for up-scaling existing Safe School models to new 50 schools across four Education Service Area Offices in Chiang Rai Province, and is built on the following key achievements of the previous phase which are 1) demonstrated Chiang Rai Model of School Safety which has been well-recognized by the government agencies and ASEAN; 2) established a strong and practical network of key local practitioners and supporting government agencies of School Safety in Chiang Rai Province for safe school promotion; and 3) develop localized minimum standards of school safety to be up-scaled and piloted in other provinces and at the national level. In order to achieve this ambition, Plan International Thailand will undertake new strategies within the Safe School program to influence the Thai government to institutionalize the Safe and Resilient School Initiative. In the 3 years timeframe 2019-2022, the projects have the following objectives -- 1) enhance capacities and engagement of change-agents and agencies in CSSF institutionalization; 2) promote collaborative platforms to improve the quality of Safe and Resilient School initiatives and accreditation; and 3) improve DRR policy framework and CSSF communication at the national level.
