OneMekong Communities
Empowering people and youth through inclusive collaboration — communities are at the centre of every OneMekong initiative.
We treat community partners as co-designers from day one. That means joint problem-framing, joint design, joint decision-making about what gets built, and joint ownership of the data and tools. The communities closest to a problem usually have the best insight into the solution.
Multi-day workshops with community partners before any technology is built.
Communities retain rights to data they produce and decide how it is shared.
We hire and train local team members in every Mekong country we work in.
All training, alerts and tools are released in local languages.
Programmes are designed to ensure women and youth are central, not afterthoughts.
We commit to multi-year partnerships in every region we engage.
