Localising SDGs through Local Government Green Growth Development Strategy @ Prix Municipality , Thailand

Mr. Suriya Yeekhun Mayor of Prix Municipality, Sadao, Songkhla, Thailand

Prix municipality has applied the concept of Sustainable Green Growth Development and good governance through partnership beyond the administrative boundary for being a Livable City Project.

The local authority has tried to work via “partnership-based” and to shift from “local government-based” to “Local Governance Green Growth Development- based ”.

This main component includes:

(I) Providing many channels to communicate and to allow the local accessibility through municipality’s (transparency)

(II) Setting the complain system for local people to response and feedback via informal meeting (accountability)

(III) Handling the task through the partnership among all actors i.e. via Community Organisation Councils and partnership among all actors (participation)
