| Abstract | The paper concludes the process of a research-based and international collaboration of ICOMOS-ICTCand partners in Thailand, including Thammasat University, ICOMOS Thailand, TCEB and DASTA Thailand. Theprocess during 2012-2015 could be divided into three parts: rethinking on the master plan, identifying the valueof destination and initiating the capacity building projects. Firstly, the multidisciplinary study of tourism planningat the Sukhothai World Heritage Site in Thailand revealed a number of challenges, especially the differencesof the international policies, government's master plan and community's identification of values on the culturalheritage destination. Secondly, eight problematic issues of the site were identified from a participatory researchand international cultural tourism experts' workshop. Thirdly, in search for sustainable and new tourism products,some built environment related projects were carried out to improve the aspects of value interpretation. |
