The research study on Policies and Networking to Reduce Gun Violence reveals a variety of policies that can effectively reduce gun violence. The approaches are simple and effective, and they include new sorts of legislation as well as those based on community public health policies. In Thailand, appropriate gun violence prevention policies consist of community and network-based policies, behavior modification and peaceful policies, responsible media use, public health and mental health policies, legal policies to suppress illegal firearms, and law enforcement policies. This includes forming a model community for reducing gun violence through a community compact known as a “Community Constitution to Reduce Gun Violence.”
