SUSTAINABILITY
Sustainability is at the heart of everything we do.
Managed by Dusit International, Tantawan Tented Camp has integrated the Tree of Life (TOL) programme—a comprehensive framework featuring 31 criteria aligned with selected United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) – into the day-to-day operations and experiences delivered to our valuable guests.
Our key sustainability initiatives, aligning with Tree of Life (TOL) , include solar lighting, eco-friendly amenities, an organic garden, locally sourced produce from nearby farmers, and cage-free hens for fresh farm-to-table dining. A cornerstone of this program is our partnership with Friends of Thai Daughters, a non-profit that provides education, safe shelter, and emotional support to ethnic minority hill tribe girls at risk of trafficking. We invite you to discover their inspiring story in the next section.
While traveling through Northern Thailand in 2002, Jane McBride and Patricia Zinkowski discovered fifteen girls living in an abandoned school in the village of Doi Luang. The girls had little adult supervision and were trying to survive as best they could in an area known for human trafficking agents. Jane and Patty committed to helping them, establishing Friends of Thai Daughters to provide a safe haven, education and support.
Since 2005, FTD has been protecting and empowering vulnerable hill tribe girls to become valued Daughters, educated women and independent adults, by providing education, safe shelter and support to girls at risk of being trafficked. Since its founding, FTD has provided life-changing support and opportunities to more than 500 girls, their families and the surrounding communities.
In 2022, Friends of Thai Daughters (FTD) completed the construction of the Sunflower Farm, an iconic bamboo and adobe structure located right next to Tantawan Tented Camp. The campus features a residential Children’s Home, an organic farm providing fresh fruit, vegetables and eggs to guests at Tantawan Tented Camp. Additionally, two state-of-the-art pickleball courts are available to guests with advance reservations.
