Ms. Kemporn Wirunrapan presented 3 cases involving commons initiatives in Thailand: Duang Khae Communication, Fish Market in Samut Prakan, Media Information and Digital Literacy. From her point of view, dealing with space for children in terms of creativity and community participation to protect children is sharing responsibility in taking care of children at the level of family, school, and community. Moreover, the participation of children and youth is also essential in specifying their future. Therefore, for over the past 30 years in fieldwork of children and youth, she firmly believes that sharing a sense of belonging and mutual trust in management is vital to succeeding in a genuinely creative space for everyone, particularly in the youth generation.
