On the run from abuse

By The Nation

 

 

More than 500 children have gone missing in Thailand in recent years and many of them are thought to be runaways.

 

SATI, in collaboration with the HUB Saidek and Paron School of Art, recently addressed this important issue by assembling two groups of kids from different worlds for its Runaway Awareness Programme.

The project brought together the kids from Harrow International School with youngsters of various ages who have been runaways, victims and, in some cases, survivors of domestic abuse. They are now housed under the HUB Foundation where the workshop took place.

Together, these kids created a mural for public bus no 48 which will run for 2 months on its route throughout the central area of Bangkok, building awareness of this issue. The first step towards finding solutions is building awareness, and mindfully understanding that the issue exists. Everyone can help to spread the message along by keeping an eye out for the no 48 bus, taking a picture of it and posting it on social network channels with hashtags #หนึ่งแชร์สร้างความเข้าใจให้อีกหนึ่งคน #sati #runawaybus @satifound @paronschoolofart
