Thailand is implementing a pilot program offering community-based care instead of detention for Rohingya children in Bangkok and three other provinces. This initiative forms part of Thailand’s broader humanitarian efforts to assist the Rohingya population. The program was presented by the Permanent Mission of Thailand to the United Nations Office in Geneva during the 77th Session of the Executive. Details of the program weren’t extensively elaborated upon in the initial report. The move signifies a shift towards more humane treatment of vulnerable Rohingya children arriving in Thailand. This approach aims to provide support while respecting the rights and well-being of the children. The announcement was initially published by Khaosod English.
