UNICEF Thailand

A collage-style image showing children and youth from diverse backgrounds across Thailand holding signs and participating in climate activism. The photo is mostly in black and white, except for a few colored design elements such as the bright "#CountMeIn" logo and selective text in blue, yellow, and white. The central Thai text reads: “เหนือ จรด ใต้ ทุกเสียงของเด็กมีความหมาย รับฟัง ลงมือทำ รับมือโลกรวน” (From North to South, every child's voice matters. Listen. Act. Tackle the climate crisis).

"What do the last 75 years tell us? That was the question we kept asking as we wrote this book telling the story of Thailand since UNICEF began its work here in 1948. One answer is that these years reveal the extraordinary resilience, ability and determination of the Thai people. Though the nation has faced repeated disasters - from malnutrition following World War II to modern calamities like the 2004 tsunami - it has not only overcome them, but emerged stronger on the other side."  From the introduction to "UNICEF Thailand: 75 Years of Commitment for Children" by Kyungsun Kim, UNICEF Representative to Thailand. 

This inspiring new coffee table book captures the history of Thailand and UNICEF from 1948 through to 2023. Bursting with vivid photographs from the past and present, the book records the work of UNICEF to support the nation's progress over the last 75 years, and the many remarkable achievements Thailand has made along the way.
