The main objective was to observe and track the project’s performance in the area and to provide support and capacity building to the on-site teams operating along the border.

The visit covered areas in Phop Phra, Tha Song Yang, and Mae Sot Districts of Tak Province, where displaced persons from conflict reside. The project is supported by the Japan Trust Fund (JTF), which plays a crucial role in driving and ensuring the sustainability of the work in the Thai-Myanmar border region.
