Thammasat Volunteer Center (TVC) was established in 2007 in order to prepare new generation of Thammasat students to become an active citizen in local and global level.It is the first university volunteer center in Thailand. TVC promotes student engagement in volunteering and community services. It also supports faculties establishing service learning programs so that students will learn how to apply their knowledge and skill for solving public issues. By those means students will become contributing and responsible citizens to society. Currently, curriculums such as contemporary community development, development studies, CSR and Social Enterprise management and volunteer management are available for higher education students, government and business sectors.The intention of the TUVC is to create opportunities for students to learn from their society, while at the same time contributing to it and to the community in a concrete and useful way. The students are encouraged to use their knowledge to provide support to the community and it is part of the students’ learning process, to become social responsible citizens, to see themselves as part of the solution. Through the center, Thammasat University hopes to train Thailand future leaders, who are socially responsible and who understand the value of volunteerism.
