Yunus Thailand is a foundation and social business co-founded by Professor Muhammad Yunus, pioneer of microfinance and the social business movement, to build a social business economy in Thailand.
We provide global best practice social business expertise to deliver innovative, financially sustainable, and scalable solutions for the most pressing social and environmental problems in a Thai context.
Our Thai and international team has specialised methodologies based on Nobel Peace Prize winning approaches to deliver localised impact in nationally and globally replicable ways, while also ensuring our expertise is relevant across sectors through multidisciplinary partnership approaches.
In 1983, Prof. Muhammad Yunus founded Grameen Bank, pioneering microfinance to empower the poor through access to small income generating loans. His work revolutionised financial inclusion, proving credit as a tool for poverty alleviation, earning the Nobel Peace Prize in 2006. Professor Yunus has also been recognised by Fortune Magazine as one of the greatest entrepreneurs of our time, establishing more than 50 social business companies across multiple impact areas, and has led the social business movement globally. As part of the global Yunus and Grameen Network, Yunus Thailand works to build a social business economy in Thailand, where social businesses are solving the most pressing social and environmental problems and those in poverty are enabled to improve their own livelihoods through the power of entrepreneurship.
