Bangkok Post - June 23, 2009
Nearly a thousand education and campaign resource materials, in both English and Thai, on sexual health and HIV related issues can be accessed from the online database and can be downloaded free of charge.
The materials include posters; leaflets; booklets; reports; both audio and video commercials, including radio spots; documentaries and talk shows; interactive computer games; condom gimmicks; and academic theses developed by government ministries, non-profit and community-based organisations and health professionals.
Supaluk Sawatnatee, a biology teacher at Mathayom Wathattasankaset School in Pathum Thani, said the database is also a highly useful resource for both teachers and parents.
"It's a direct resource and helps save a lot of time. Also, the information comes from a [trustworthy] source," she said.
