The grass-roots economy at the local community level needs to be strong and increase competitiveness this means it must be self-reliant through economic and behavioral restructuring by promoting the learning process of the community such as educating open exchange platform and organizing a community learning center or community information center to collect history. These efforts provide the community with a foundation for driving community-based tourism, enabling them to innovate, add value, and elevate the quality of products and services, thereby building trust among stakeholders. © 2024, Research and Development Institute Suan Dusit University.
