SONGKHLA and NAKHON SI THAMMARAT Provinces, Thailand – July 6-7, 2024

In the spirit of safeguarding vulnerable students on their way to school, AIP Foundation is hosting a weekend of Master Teacher Trainings as part of the Chevron Street Wise program. The Master training will welcome a total of 84 teachers from two provinces to learn about safe mobility skills and how they can be at the forefront of ensuring their students’ lives are better protected on their way to and from school.

A sustainable approach to building capacity for teachers

The main objectives of the training are to:

– Focus on how to create the school measures for safe mobility, focusing on the area of helmet wearing and pedestrian safety.

– Capacity building for the teachers to be more trained on safe mobility school measures and assist the students to ensure their safety.

Overall, the Master trainers learn how to best engage students in learning lifelong safe mobility skills in a creative and interactive manner. They will further gain in-depth insight, which they can impart to their students. In this spirit, we champion long-term sustainability for safe mobility for students in Thailand.
