In the second week of September, AIP Foundation’s Thailand Program Officer and an M&E Specialist from Mahidol University conducted midterm monitoring and evaluation at 5 schools in Singhanakhon from the 14thto 17thSeptember 2015. The aim of this study was to determine the impact of the Chevron-sponsored Street Wise project’s implementation thus far.  Helmet observations, pedestrian observations, in-depth interviews with school directors and focus group discussions with teachers aided in evaluating program activities. AIP Foundation met with the Chevron team in Songkhla on 3 November to present Street Wise’s midterm report and evaluation results.  According to the assessment, the helmet wearing rate of students in Singhanakhon increased from 3 % in 2014 to 33% after officially launching the project in July 2015.
