How UOB Thailand is mentoring Thailand's next-gen green leaders

As a leading force in Asean’s green transition, UOB Thailand has embedded sustainability into both its business and community agenda, aligned with its goal of achieving net-zero emissions by 2050. Its efforts earned recognition from the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration as a waste management leader — a milestone that set the stage for an even greater ambition: empowering young Thais to drive change.

That belief inspired “Wonder Lab: Youth For A Greener Tomorrow”, a new platform inviting youth to turn ideas into projects that directly address environmental problems in their communities. Open to participants aged 15-25 nationwide, the inaugural year drew 453 applicants across 102 teams. Ten finalists were selected to develop their projects within one month before presenting their results at a showcase on Sept 13.
