  • Thematic Interpretation Plan Savannakhet Province Lao People's Democratic Republic
    Thematic Interpretation Plan Savannakhet Province Lao People’s Democratic Republic GMS-Sustainable Tourism Development Project in Lao PDR Lao National Tourism Administration Prepared by: Linda Susan McIntosh, PhD Candidate Thematic Interpretation and Textile Specialist 33 Soi 1 Sukhumvit Road Klongtoey-nua, Wattana What is Thematic Interpretation? Thematic Interpretation is the practice of verbal and non-verbal communication, using illustrated and non-illustrated techniques to present complex subject matter in an interesting and engaging way. One model of Thematic Interpretation is TORE™ = Thematic, Organized, Relevant, and Enjoyable “Successful interpretation provokes people to think. Their thinking creates meanings in their own minds. Themes can stay with us, even when we forget the smaller facts that support them. Strong themes stick in our minds, some of them forever”. Themes, because they are whole ideas, are expressed in the same form as information already stored in our minds. So when we communicate a theme effectively we give visitors something they can readily relate, self-appropriate, and incorporate into their thinking. Themes are ideas not topics: Examples of Themes: An Example of a Topic: • Birds are a fascinating group of animals • Birds because of their special adaptations for flight. • Native birds everywhere are in a fight for their lives because of overdevelopment and Having a theme helps us prepare educational and promotional materials. It makes our job a lot easier because with a theme we able to understand what to include and not include in a presentation to visitors. 2 SAVANNAKHET HISTORIC TRAIL - Background The SAVANNAKHET HISTORIC TRAIL is a new tour circuit consisting of historic, cultural and natural attractions, situated along the East-West Corridor in Savannakhet Province, Lao PDR.

First and foremost, I wish to express my gratitude to Cranfield University at Shrivenham U.K. I am profoundly grateful to Professor Christopher Bellamy, both at Cranfield and Greenwich, for his contribution to my intellectual growth and unstinting inspiration in tackling a thesis on UXO, plus the encouraging discussions about the problems which have been treated in this work, and answering constant and probably banal questions from a student, who never served in the armed forces. After Professor Bellamy moved to Greenwich, no-one suitably qualified to supervise my research remained at Cranfield and I, too, transferred. I am also grateful to Professor Alan Reed, Chair of the University of Greenwich Research Degrees Committee for easing that process.

The aim is to get an understanding of the development of NGOs in Lao PDR to-day, with an aim to find organisations of interest for the project in its second planning phase and during implementation. 2 GENERAL The main increase in international NGO assistance occurred after the adoption of the New Economic Mechanism (NEM) by the Government of Lao PDR in 1986. Although the Constitution of 1991 approves of the establishment of associations and organisations local NGOs are not officially recognised. The Government officially acknowledges the importance of international NGOs and their possibilities in reaching vulnerable populations with efficient interventions, however, some mistrust still exist. The number of international NGOs in Lao PDR is growing slowly compared to the situation in e.g.
