[Thailand Projects] 3-Month Field Report: Operational Updates & Urgent Challenges at Mae La Refugee Camp 🇹🇭🇲🇲

In April, we launched our medical dispatch program to support the hospital inside Mae La Refugee Camp—a facility pushed far beyond its capacity and forced to turn critical patients away.

Three months in, our dispatched physician, Dr. Kaung Zan Oo, has shared a comprehensive field update detailing both our victories on the ground and the steep operational hurdles we continue to face.

1. Overcoming a Severe Dengue Surge (Zero Fatalities)
With the arrival of the rainy season in June, dengue fever cases spiked from 9 in May to 70 in June. Lacking automated lab equipment and electronic IV drip regulators, Dr. Kaung Zan Oo and the hospital staff manually examined blood samples and regulated fluids around the clock—successfully preventing a single casualty.

2. Innovation Over Limitations ("Using What Exists")
Operating in a resource-scarce environment requires constant creativity:

Custom Neck Braces: Lacking standard cervical collars, the team crafts them out of cardboard wrapped in towels and sponges.

Cast Padding: In place of cushion bandages, staff clean, boil, and sterilize cotton cloth for lower-layer padding.

Surgical Lighting: Without specialized operating lights, doctors wear commercial LED headlamps to stitch wounds.

3. Daily Operations & System Improvements
Dr. Kaung Zan Oo begins his day with a 30-minute bus commute to the camp hospital, where lines of patients are already waiting. His schedule alternates between intense outpatient shifts (9:30–15:30) and inpatient ward handovers. Beyond direct clinical care, he is actively resolving operational bottlenecks:

Working through technical hurdles to transition the hospital from paper records to a digital database.

Addressing low morale and fear of radiation exposure among X-ray technicians by conducting educational workshops and introducing radiation measuring equipment.

4. An Urgent Funding Shortfall
While Dr. Kaung Zan Oo’s dispatch has restored 24/7 emergency care and reduced wait times, the camp hospital faces an immediate crisis: funding for two of the camp's three doctors expires this July. Without new financial commitments, healthcare capacity will collapse back past its limits.

To help us keep these essential doctors on the front lines, consider supporting our project. We will upload more detailed reports as the project continues.

Preventing Ebola, One Community at a Time 🧼

In the Democratic Republic of the Congo, we've launched a new Ebola-prevention initiative built on an approach that already proved itself in our malaria-prevention work: training local nursing students to become health educators themselves. 💧
These young women and men carry the message to where people gather — schools, churches, and community spaces 🏫⛪ — walking neighbours through awareness posters and showing why something as simple as handwashing can help stop the spread of Ebola.
Alongside this, and as shared in our press release, we've installed handwashing stations at 10 locations and are spreading prevention messages through local radio. 📻
The photos show the new handwashing tanks now in place, and the nursing students during their training 👏 — the people who will carry this knowledge forward within their own community.
This is how protection takes root: not handed down, but carried forward by the community itself. Thank you for standing with them. 🌍

🐄 A week of monitoring in Cambodia — side by side with our partners from Korea
Last week, two staff members from The Right Hands — the Korean NGO we've partnered with this year to run our Cow Bank program — travelled all the way to Cambodia to see the project on the ground with us.
On day one, we headed to Samlout District, where the Cow Bank began this year. Together with the staff of Baitong Agricultural Cooperative — supported by a JICA project until this January — and the 25 households participating in Group 3, we held a workshop and conducted home visits to monitor how the cattle are being raised.
The Cow Bank rests on a simple, powerful idea: a family receives a cow, raises it with care, and passes on its offspring to the next household — so that support keeps moving from neighbour to neighbour, and communities grow more self-reliant over time.
Watching the cattle thrive and meeting the families caring for them was a reminder that lasting change is something we build together — across borders, across organisations, and through the people who make it real on the ground.
Thank you to our partners at The Right Hands for travelling so far to walk alongside us. 🇰🇭🤝🇰🇷

🐄 Cow Bank Project Update from Cambodia

This April, we launched a new Cow Bank initiative in Samlout District, Battambang Province, Cambodia, together with our Korean partner NGO, The Right Hands.
Twenty-five vulnerable households — including families affected by landmines — have received cows on loan. Last week, we held a two-day cattle-rearing training, and every single participant attended. No absences. Their commitment was truly inspiring.
In rural Cambodia, livestock means more than livelihood. It is savings, security, and a path toward self-reliance. When calves are born, they are passed on to the next household — multiplying hope, one family at a time.
Thank you to The Right Hands, to our local team, and to everyone who walks this journey with us.
🌱 Together, we build peace.

🇹🇭 Field Report from Sangkhlaburi — Listening Before We Act

We've just returned from the Thai–Myanmar border, where we spent time at Ban Don Yang refugee camp and two villages sheltering displaced families. We couldn't reach the Three Pagodas Pass border itself — stopped at a checkpoint — but what we saw on this side told us enough to understand the urgency.

Many of the displaced families we met have no registration, no family book, no legal status. They live in hiding from Thai authorities, and work is nearly impossible to find.

Even for those with papers, opportunity is partial. A working-age adult may be hired, but children, elders, and spouses who aren't selected must remain in the camp.

The funding situation is deeply concerning. Food rations now reach only the most vulnerable. The camp's 30 schoolteachers and 30 health workers have lost their salaries entirely — they must now seek outside work to feed themselves, even as the community needs them more than ever.

Amid these hardships, we also noticed small signs of resilience — modest local efforts in pig rearing and vegetable growing that align with Karen traditions.
This was a listening trip.

📣 Coming soon on GlobalGiving
Terra Renaissance's new project supporting vulnerable communities along the Thai–Myanmar border will be launching very soon. Stay tuned — and thank you for being part of this journey from the very beginning.
None of this work is possible without you.

🌍 From Uganda & Burundi | Handmade Bookmarks, Two Countries, One Idea
We have something to share — and it comes in twos. 🎉
In Uganda, our trainee Gladys and her fellow trainees have been hard at work crafting handmade bookmarks from vibrant African fabric. From selecting the fabric, to the making process, to the finished product — every step carried intention and care.
In Burundi, the same idea took root independently. What started as work-in-progress has now become a beautiful set of completed African-style bookmarks.
Two country programs. Two groups of trainees. One shared craft — born in different places, made with the same hands-on spirit.
We love moments like this, when something small reminds us that the skills being built in our vocational training programs go far beyond the practical. They carry culture, creativity, and pride.
More details on these bookmarks coming soon!
