"Working with FED has simply been a great experience for me. I was used to work in bigger western organisations, but I learned so much more in this community-based organisation. The people who are working in FED are all really welcoming and eager to do their job as good as possible. They have strong values, and it was so enriching for me to work in this environment. I felt every morning that I was useful for something. FED is doing something really important for Burmese people and for Thailand as well, and for the encounter of peoples. Apart from FED's team, the experience with the children has been great, and so moving. They are so willing to learn, so interested and smart. Even teenagers were showing signs of strong democratic values and a will to fight for education and change in their country.I really think that volunteering with FED is a really rich experience, even for people not knowing at first about Burma. Myself I knew some things but I was not so into Asian issues. In the end, after just a few months, I found myself so involved, and when I was back to France, I was already looking for the means to help more from abroad. I hope many more volunteers, from all ages and origines, will go there, because they will never forget. And Burmese people, wherever they are, need to be remembered."
