The School of Public Policy, Chiang Mai University, has collaborated with the Development Planning Unit at University College London on a research project to support planning for the development of the sacred area from Wat Umong to Doi Suthep, the creative economy area of Chang Moi, the multicultural area of Wat Ket, the local wisdom area of Wualai, the Mae Kha Canal area, and the area along the Yang Na road.

We were honoured to welcome executives and officers from Chiang Mai Municipality, representatives from the Chiang Mai Provincial Administrative Organisation, the Provincial Office of Natural Resources and Environment, and the Community Organisations Development Institute. We also welcomed faculty members from the Faculties of Architecture, Mass Communication, and Humanities at Chiang Mai University, executives from several educational institutions, civil society networks, and community leaders. All joined us in listening to the research findings and in offering reflections through interactive boards and presentations during the discussion forum.

Importantly, many of the policy ideas can be taken forward in the respective areas. The CMU Policy Lab will be used as a platform for further dialogue, collaboration, and meaningful development in the city.
