The ultimate aim was to study the integration of creative economic concepts in the development of products in order to create added economic value. Study of six weaving groups in Northeastern Thailand found that the Phu Thai groups in Thailand brought their original dress culture with them when they emigrated from Laos. There are two characteristics of cotton cloth products: self-woven products for personal use and products woven as tradable community goods.

The Session was noteworthy since it was held in conjunction with the 50th anniversary celebration of the founding of CCOP, in which prior to the conference, panel discussions and keynote presentations by eminent persons on the topic “Geoscience for the Society” had graced the opening. It is undeniable that the role of geoscience is invaluable in the current global environment and the challenges that the world is facing today and in the future. In line with the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and Paris Agreement on Climate Change, geoscience roles converge with the global agenda in bettering the lives of people while maximizing the scarce resources, and making full use of the digital network and its advancement for societal benefit. Better coordination across sectors, wise management of resources and effective communication on climate and geohazards information need to be done to support economic and social growth.
