Back in college I had the great fortune of going to Thailand for 3 months and working for Mechai's non-profit. The man is a legend for real and this article barely scratches the surface. While it started with condoms his organization has done so much more since. My student group worked with Thai students and we visited villages where the PDA had installed solar powered water pumps. We were basically tasked with checking in and seeing how it was going. The whole experience really changed my perspective on a lot of things. Mechai's approach is based on empowering communities instead of telling them what to do. And guess what? It works. As a bonus, here is a picture of me with an anthropomorphic condom I met at a Cabbage's & Condoms restaurant: https://imgur.com/a/pRnCrh9 https://imgur.com/a/pRnCrh9 Also, Mechai's TED Talk is worth checking out: https://www.ted.com/talks/mechai_viravaidya_how_mr_condom_made_thailand_a_better_place?language=en https://www.ted.com/talks/mechai_viravaidya_how_mr_condom_ma...
