Creating innovations that promote healthy
human development worldwide

EDC's Health and Human Development in Asia works with public and private partners to design and deliver strategies to address challenges of poverty, health, and education.

Our regional office in Bangkok supports local partners in each of the countries in which we work, promoting development within communities, schools, and the workplace. 

Our work extends beyond Thailand to Vietnam, Cambodia, Lao PDR, China, Taiwan, and India. We partner with diverse organizations at the local, national, and international levels to design, deliver, and evaluate innovative programs to address critical challenges and underlying poverty in these areas.

LIFE - Small Business Development
Nearly 15,000 micro-entrepreneurs and youth across Asia have been trained in business and information technology through the Hewlett-Packard Learning Initiative for Entrepreneurs (HP LIFE).
EDC HHD Asia is the HP Center of Excellence in Asia-Pacific and North America.
Asia HIV/AIDS Project
In each year of the project, approximately 11,000 orphans and vulnerable children affected by HIV/AIDs in Thailand, Cambodia, Lao PDR, India, and Vietnam benefited through our HIV/AIDS project in partnership with Deutsche Bank and local NGOs. 
These children and their families receive school scholarships, family vocational training, assistance with income-generating activities, and other critical care and support services.
