2022 “Green Lifestyle for Children in Lancang-Mekong Countries” Program was launched in Beijing, China in September. Traimit Wittayalai High School and Maha Villanua Primary School in Bangkok, Thailand, as the partner schools of this program, have actively participated in it and organized various activities for primary and secondary school students.

Under the guidance of teachers, the students have created various visual art works themed on "Diversified Lives and Colorful World". They pick up brushes to paint the beautiful world in their eyes. Their works vividly show the ecological and cultural characteristics of the Lancang-Mekong Region.
