The objective of this youth-led project was to create a forum as a public place for youths from civil society organizations, government sectors, communities and the media to discuss Chiang Mai's urban pain points and see how universal design concepts can lead to the proposal of solutions and policy recommendations. The group for example organized an online game to highlight Chiang Mai's sidewalk and accessibility issues. They also participated in the Thailand Friendly Design Expo in February 2022, and presented their project in competition and won 10,000 Thai Baht. On March 20, 2022, the group organized a universal design activity titled "Let's Talk with Chiang Mai" with the aim of supporting youth participation in developing Chiang Mai city into an inclusive city and a community for all people based on the principles of universal design, as well as the cooperation of many network partners to take part in this forum. The group also participated in a Thai PBS project called “#You tell us, we expand” by exploring the sidewalks in public areas around Tha Phae Gate, Mueang District, Chiang Mai Province and discuss what the city needs to be a more inclusive city.
