The ‘You Me We Us’ online exhibition invites the viewer to learn about various ethnic groups in Thailand through engaging stories, articles, photographs, and videos. Some exhibited works are the products of interviews conducted with the subjects, while others have been produced by the subjects themselves.

Some of the exhibited works resulted from a series of ‘Creative and Strategic Communication for Sustainability’ workshops organized by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) with support from the European Union (EU). Facilitated by Realframe, these workshops aimed to equip those from ethnic minorities with the necessary skills to communicate their stories to the world.

Realizing the participants’ power to convey their experiences and challenges through creative storytelling, UNDP created the ‘You Me We Us’ online exhibition to showcase these along with stories from partner organizations and the public. The exhibition will celebrate the International Day of the World’s Indigenous Peoples, which takes place on August 9th each year.

‘You Me We Us’ encourages the viewer to learn more about diverse perspectives and the various challenges faced by minority populations, while also inspiring them to explore their own roots. Ultimately, this exhibition aims to foster a mindset which will contribute to an environment of mutual respect and equality for all.

‘You Me We Us’ is hosted by UNDP in partnership with the Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn Anthropology Centre (SAC), the Inter Mountain Peoples Education and Culture in Thailand Association (IMPECT), and the Council of Indigenous Peoples in Thailand (CIPT), with support from the EU.
