CLE Foundation aims to achieve its goals by educating vulnerable communities as well as empowering groups and individuals within the academic sector to assist these communities in resolving issues arising from a lack of education. Throughout Thailand CLE Foundation is currently developing Clinical Legal Education (CLE) and Community Empowerment Initiatives (CEI). Internationally, CLE Foundation supports and connects Thai CLE programs with other internationally developed CLE programs to create stronger collaborations as well as to promote best practices in CLE and CEI methodology.
