\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Persons with disabilities are a vulnerable group gaining increasing attention from the international community, especially in terms of education, career development, and employment promotion. These factors foster equality and reduce social disparity, aligning with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). As a leading academic institution in Thailand, Burapha University has been entrusted by the University of Delaware, USA, to implement disability and social enterprise study tours in Thailand continuously. This initiative promotes the exchange of knowledge and experience in disability development. The project aims to provide participants with an in-depth understanding of managing the quality of life for people with disabilities in Thailand through visits to key public and private organisations. Additionally, it offers an opportunity to establish academic cooperation networks between the two universities and further develop related research and policies.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
