Within the last year, one SEEDS consultant in south Thailand has made the change from community development projects to educational involvement within a local university. This is a new development and many details are yet to be confirmed, but the goal of educational development through the new role at the local university is the main focus. So far it has been achieved through English language instruction for undergraduate students, which will be extended to postgraduate students and staff later. Another way to be involved in education is by collaborating with research projects and seminars within the university. This will be focused on various issues (including social, cultural, and educational issues) and will bring together local researchers, as well as lecturers and staff from the university. It is hoped that such initiatives will help benefit understanding and education levels throughout the university and beyond.
