Dr. Thadtong Bhrammanee, Head of the Farmer Academy Learning Management Project based on the New Theory Agriculture approach (THT Farmer Academy) and Coordinator for Phetchaburi, UNESCO Creative City of Gastronomy, participated in a knowledge-sharing session and engaged in discussions to provide guidance on action plan development with Chanthaburi Province’s working group on January 12, 2025. This initiative aligns with Chanthaburi's ambition to join the Creative Cities Network, supporting the province's priorities in food security, safe food production, and enhancing the quality of life for farmers, fishers, and residents. These priorities focus on physical health, income generation, and the preservation of the natural environment.
