Why it matters
With more than half of Thailand’s estimated 700 private institutional care facilities unregistered, this further raises serious risks around care quality and child safeguarding. Early, community-based interventions—such as safe after-school care, educational and psychosocial support, and parent empowerment—can address the root causes of separation, strengthen families, and enable children to grow up safely within their own communities
