- Openmind Projects (OMP), in Nong Khai Province, Thailand is a developmental aid organisation focused on helping communities in Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, and Nepal through the creation and management of grass roots projects in the areas of e-learning, education, and environment. The focus of the organisation is using information and communication technologies (ICT) to educate individuals in schools, orphanages, national parks, and villages. Projects rely on volunteers to promote changes in local communities. OMP was founded in 2001 by Swedish management consultant Sven Mauleon and Gaweechat Joompaula, the first local volunteer in the pioneering "IT in Isan", a self-taught computer wizard from a rice farming family. In 2001 Gaweechat began helping orphans to use computers and designed the organisation's first website. Since then OMP has supported some 60 schools, orphanages, national parks, and villages in Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, and Nepal. Openmind Projects acts as a private aid organization, bringing essential knowledge about computers, English and conservation to developing countries in Asia. (en)
