50% of staff are female.
Some of the upcoming projects include involving the local community in producing and selling natural and local products to boost their income and build capacities.
Sae Lao aim to raise awareness of sustainability and environmental issues and work with local people on issues of sustainability.
Their approach includes responsible use of natural resources, organic farming practices and environmentally friendly building techniques.
