Thailand International Cooperation Agency (TICA) organized the “Sufficiency Economy Philosophy (SEP) for Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) Partnership” Exhibition as a side event of the 5th Asia – Pacific Forum on Sustainable Development (APFSD) 2018 during 28 – 30 March 2018 at United Nation ESCAP, Bangkok, Thailand.
On 28 March 2018, Mr. Don Pramudwinai, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Thailand, visited the Exhibition which is aimed to present Thailand’s global partnership for sustainable development through its SEP for SDGs Partnership policy. The policy has been implemented by sharing Thailand’s best practices of SEP application as a development approach for sustainable development to other developing countries under TICA’s bilateral, trilateral and multilateral cooperation. The activities under the said cooperation have been done in the forms of short-term training courses, post-graduate programmes and study visits on the topics related to SEP; and the projects on sustainable community development with an application of SEP.
Apart from those activities, TICA also expands its SEP knowledge sharing and learning networks to the public domestically and internationally in various categories of briefings, exhibitions, VDO presentations and publications to promote better understanding of Thailand’s SEP and its SEP for SDGs Partnership policy to support the achievement of SDGs.
