The Hill Tribe Rainforest Adventure Experience
AFECT - THE ASSOCIATION FOR AKHA EDUCATION AND CULTURE IN THAILAND - is the oldest HILL TRIBE organization in Thailand. We have been protecting HILL TRIBE culture for 28 years. Because we are the only organization in Asia protecting HILL TRIBE Culture we are pleased to offer unique short courses in OUR TRIBAL SCHOOL ADVENTURE and Long term Volunteer placements - some of the best in Thailand. We work in association with UNESCO and UNDP.
We offer a 3 day and weekly RAINFOREST ADVENTURE where you learn about Forest Survival, Shamanism, Interwoven Forest Consciousness, Ecology, Naturopathy (herbal ancient medicine) Mythology and Patterns Systems and Relationships found in the Natural World. Interspersed within the school program are fun tours and activities that make this a unique way to engage in a fascinating and ancient culture. Our villages are culturally protected by UNESCO and off the typical tourist track so without other tourists around you can experience customs inherently alive with hill tribe traditions unchanged for hundreds of years.
Learning how creative tribes live teaching us a deeper understanding of interwoven life and ourselves within the cosmos and gives you valuable life skills which will stay with you for ever.
Long Term Volunteering
Many NGO's do great work and offer exciting volunteer exchanges but often centre on fragments of humanitarian work. Because we are run and managed by the hill tribe we believe in a holistic and progressive approach to charitable work. Working within the cultural structures of hill tribe society creates a lasting and more sustaining autonomy.
We can arrange extremely diverse volunteer packages around our 12 the humanitarian programs we manage.
These volunteer packages are some of the best in Thailand.
AFECT'S Hill Tribe Rain Forest Adventure in Chiang Rai Thailand offers a unique experience of hill tribal culture.
