Thailand’s agricultural communities, including the Baan Noan Rang Burapha Learning Center, face a lack of young adult interest in herbal knowledge. To address this, the team worked to preserve herbal wisdom at the center through promotional and certification methods. The team designed new herbal oil packaging to appeal to young adults, created a TikTok account to spread herbal knowledge, and submitted grant applications to fund facility updates that would ultimately lead to center certifications and increase appeal to young adults.
