“Most Thai LGBTQ+ programming stops at three cities. Rural reach is the scarce asset.”— PrideShow Editorial Board
World Vision Foundation of Thailand has worked on child welfare, poverty alleviation and community development since 1974, with programme reach into provinces where few other international NGOs operate.

Eighth at 70 points. As a Christian humanitarian organisation working on child welfare, its position sits at an intersection that international faith-based development has navigated unevenly — which makes its provincial reach both the strongest argument for its placement and the area where practice most warrants examination.
