Abstract

As the current situation of social service provision in the temporary shelters is not sustainable, considerable attention needs to be placed on alternatives to the current situation, such as access to local Thai services for displaced persons. How and to what extent displaced persons living in the temporary shelters can access education, health care and legal justice services in local Thai communities is discussed. Specific attention is paid to current and future RTG collaboration on these services. The potential implications of displaced persons’ access to local Thai education, health and legal justice services are evaluated.
