Co-Creation for Sustainable Development: A Community-Driven Innovation Model in Bang Nam Phueng, Thailand
Main Article Content
บทคัดย่อ
This study explores a community-driven co-creation model for localizing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in Bang Nam Phueng, Thailand. Using a participatory action research (PAR) approach, the research engaged 70 international youth participants and local stakeholders across five thematic areas: inclusive tourism, waste management, circular packaging, sustainable mobility, and digital transformation. The study applies the SMCR communication framework to analyze how intercultural collaboration can generate practical, scalable solutions aligned with SDGs 11, 12, and 13. Results demonstrate that youth-led innovation, grounded in local culture and facilitated through stakeholder communication, can effectively enhance sustainability outcomes in community contexts. The research proposes two key outputs: (1) a Co-Learning Framework for youth engagement and (2) a Stakeholder Communication Toolkit adapted from the SMCR model. These models offer a transferable blueprint for participatory SDG implementation through community-based innovation.
