Empowering people with the knowledge, technology, and skills necessary for a better future.
Kenan Foundation Asia believes in a world where everyone has the right to build a better life for themselves, their family, and their community. Every day, we are working in Thailand and the region to inspire students, develop skilled people, and grow strong leaders by empowering them with the knowledge, technology, and skills.
Strengthening Education Pathways
We know. Changing education is hard, but it can and must be done. Kenan works with the education system to inspire students, develop skilled teachers, and grow strong school leaders. Our goal is to ensure every kid receives a 21st century education and is prepared for the careers of tomorrow.
Driving Economic and Social Inclusion
Kenan’s Driving Economic and Social Inclusion programs are designed to increase awareness and promote positive change to reduce inequalities in the private sector, in the community, and through government while bridging the gap of beliefs, values, and accessibility to strengthen social cohesion.

Our area of work .
Kenan helps aspiring small business owners and entrepreneurs to take the final step into being their own boss, by inspiring entrepreneurship, assisting the development of digital skills, and helping to create an ecosystem in which small business owners can run their businesses both confidently and successfully.
We don’t just provide amazing training; we also provide the coaching and mentoring, and necessary materials and equipment to make sure people are able to apply their new skills.
Whether it’s a community entrepreneur looking to sell on-line, a teacher who wants to deliver a quality education to students, a small business owner looking to sell overseas, a factory worker who needs health literacy knowledge or a sugar-cane farmer who needs financial literacy skills, Kenan is working to make them “smart,” by providing them with the knowledge, technology and skills needed to improve their circumstances and pursue their dreams.
Kenan’s Social Inclusion programs are designed to increase awareness and promote positive change, to reduce inequalities and strengthen social cohesion.
Kenan promotes gender equality and actively equips disadvantaged populations with technological training, education, a greater sense of self-esteem, and the necessary skill sets to increase both their economic opportunities and support inclusive growth. We also empower the young and old to become positive change agents in their communities. By helping to bridge generational gaps, we can promote a stronger, mutually-beneficial social cohesion.
