Project V by Kafepá

   The Youth Volunteer Project (ProjectV) is one of Mergion social projects under the Youth Empowerment Program run by the group of youth volunteers, intending to share what they gain to other youths and to return back something to other youths contributing to their better society.

    The goal is to enhance IT and life-skills of Lao students from the upper secondary school and university through on-job training with Mergion (internship), formal and informal training workshop and participating the discussion session from invited guest speakers.

   The ProjectV was first launched in early 2020 by the Mergion CEO with some financial support from the Japanese businessman, Mr. Kazumasa Namekata and Magic Library, Dr. Phinseng Channgakham.  

Mission

Message from our students

Vilatda PHIAKHAM

(Project V - Gen 2)

     “Project V is a space that has allowed me to improve myself in many ways, giving me the courage to express myself and change my perspective for the better.

   It has provided me with the opportunity to participate in various activities and attend new workshops, gaining different experiences that have been incredibly beneficial.
   The time spent participating and listening has helped shift my thinking positively and has also inspired me greatly. After joining this project, I have been motivated to further develop myself, get involved in different volunteer activities, and contribute to society, just like how Project V has supported us.”

     “Received support such as computers, internet access, food items like eggs, and having a good mentor.
     Every time I met with someone, I was inspired to develop myself. Seeing my friends quickly develop themselves motivated me, I gained the idea that I must become a person with clear life goals and confidence.
     Participating in various activities allowed me to see new things, meet great people, learn about their ideas, and how they achieve success in life. I gained inspiration to be successful like them.
     Discussing and exchanging knowledge and ideas with friends, siblings, and younger brothers and sisters.”
