ที่มา/ความสำคัญโครงการ :

 “wheel-go-round” was founded by a group of 5 change makers who want to see wheelchair users live life as freely as everyone else. Due to inappropriate environments, lack of accessible facilities, as well as lack of information of places, many wheelchair users choose to avoid getting out of their house because of the uncertainty they have to face when going to places they do not know and the worry to be a burden for other people while travelling. For this reason, “wheel-go-round” has created an online database to gather and share information about accessibility of places in Thailand through www.wheelgoround.in.th and allow people to share information and interact through our Facebook Page at www.facebook.com/wheelgoround. We also organize events and invite groups of wheelchair users to engage in outside activities together, creating a community of active wheelchair users in Bangkok and Thailand. Our next event will be held at Madame Tussaud’s Bangkok, where we will invite kids in wheelchair to play games and enjoy the wax museum with their family and other fellow wheelchair users.

กิจกรรมที่จะดำเนินโครงการ :

1. Promote the project wheel-go-round and introduce its website and mobile application which have useful information, and people can also share information about facilities in each place to other wheelchair users.
2. Organize an activity at Madame Tussaud’s Bangkok museum where wheelchair users can access, and children can participate an activity out of their homes. In addition, this is also the way for us to create a community for wheelchair users.
3. Give awards and souvenirs to participants to create good relationships and urge them to participate activities outside of their homes.

 


The Family Rally activity opened an opportunity for participants to find answers to get prizes.

Earlier, we, Wheel-go-round, organized an activity “We Wheel Watch a Movie @ Mega Cineplex” for wheelchair users to watch a movie at Mega Bangna and also organized “Family Rally @ Museum Siam”, a mini rally game at the Siam Museum. As a result, we got a lot of good feedbacks from participants who attended both events that gave us great comfort to keep going.

Participants jointly searched for answers and sent it on LINE.

We are a group of MBA students at Thammasat Business School, Bangkok, Thailand, who share a common vision to see wheelchair users enjoying life outside of their house as freely as everyone else. “wheel-go-round” was founded to drive societal change by collecting and sharing information on accessibility of places; and finding sponsorship for organizing fun activities for wheelchair users to come together and engage in fun experience  outside of their usual environments.
