Conference in Thailand: 14th to 16th January

Next milestone: Conference in Thailand and the Productive Teen website

The next group starts this Thursday and two other groups will start in February. Hopefully, I will have about 200 students trying to help Malay teenagers empower themselvesUpdate on the data collected so far
