The forum aimed to create a collaborative model for addressing poverty in the district, which would later be expanded to other districts in Sakon Nakhon. In 2023, the university extended the project to the Akat Amnuai district. The event was supported by the Area-Based Development Fund, the Office of Science, Research, and Innovation Promotion, and is a key mechanism in the province’s integrated approach to combating poverty. This initiative aligns with the Ministry of Interior’s policy on sustainable local development, particularly the “District Happiness and Poverty Alleviation Project.” The integrated data system developed through this process will help strengthen households and communities, improving the quality of life and providing greater stability for local residents.
