Thailand Acted

Photo Story: Training the next generation of Beauty Therapists in Thailand

ACTED Thailand is supporting refugee women to a future in Myanmar through beauty and hard work.

Hundreds of bamboo houses roofed with leaves, dusty roads and big green rice fields greet you as you arrive in Ban Mai Nai Soi and Ban Mae Surin refugee camps in northern Thailand.

The camps have been here for more than 30 years and are currently home to over 12,000 refugees who fled conflict in Myanmar. ACTED has been working with the support of the European Union to provide vocational training to the camp residents since 2015. The idea is to increase their skills in preparation for their voluntary return to Myanmar.

The students practice their new skills on each other to ensure a high level of professionalism before graduating the course. This increases the students’ chances of employment both within the camp and after a potential return to Myanmar.

Once the students are more confident in their skills, they get the opportunity to practice on women from the camp. This both increased the students skills as well as supports the women to gain more self-esteem while providing a safe space and a small break from the struggles they have been through.

This is Kay Wai another of the graduates from the hairdressing course. She was born in the camp and signed up for the course to gain skills on how to cut, wash and set hair to support women in feeling more confident with themselves. Kay is dreaming of going to Australia to work as a hairdresser, if she can save enough money.
