A seed donation event for Karen State was held at Sanimthoon Cafe in Chiang Mai, Thailand on Feb. 23. The Thai and Myanmar communities came together to support Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) and farmers in conflict-affected areas of Karen State.
“This program is very significant as it aims to help those in armed conflict areas, like our IDPs, who lack food security in their regions. This could be really helpful for them,” said Naw Zember Paw, the founder of Food Not Bombs Kawthoolei.
The seed donation event featured musical performance, a documentary film screening, and discussion on the theme of climate change and armed conflict, hosted by members of the Karen community in Thailand. Seed donations will be accepted at Sanimthoon Cafe in Chiang Mai until May 31.
