The group of youths in Khon Kaen saw the potential of 'Bueng Thung Sang' as an opportunity for people in the city to improve their quality of life and have access to resources to create new opportunities. 'Bueng Thung Sang' is intended to be a learning and a social space that connects people at all levels, whether it is a group of friends or family in an urban community. The group took part in the Isan Creative Festival in March 2022, to discuss the possibility of developing this area with stakeholders involved through the activity "Discussion of Youth to Listen to the City: The Way of Thung Sang" organized on March 5, 2022. The aim of the campaign was to find a way to create a public space where people of all groups can access the resources that the city has designed and benefit from them freely. The youths were interested in the issue of public space management and to see the potential of Bueng Thung Sang as a space that allows urban dwellers to have better quality of life and better access to resources to create new opportunities for themselves. RTUS Can Coon youth conducted a survey and interviews to explore the needs of Bueng Thung Sang users, so that its use could be expanded beyond simply a health park. The result were presented at a panel discussion as part of the Isan Creative Festival 2022.
