The Peace Corps Volunteer Program in Thailand has served as a bridge of friendship between the two countries for over 63 years. It has also brought Thais and Americans closer together, and has played a significant role in strengthening people-to-people connectivity, as Peace Corps Volunteers work alongside their local counterparts and share knowledge and experiences in various sectors such as education, health, environment, agriculture, community and youth development.
