32. Suggestion to replicate Civic Tech from Taiwan to Thailand
- To continuously organize activities that strengthen relationship among
members of Civic Tech community who are interested in Open Data and
Open Source linked to social issues.
- To incubate innovation from Civic Tech Community and make it practical
through the crowdfunding or investment for social enterprise to pave the
way for sustainable Civic Tech innovation.
- To open up a space for greater public participation, both local and national
levels, in the debate about proposals made by Civic Tech community
linked to the public policy and the government’s decision.
- To build new generation leader, in every year the community should have
a new generation involves for transition of community’s leadership and
keep continue the activities with new ideas.

33. Conclusion
The fundamental factor that keep Civic Tech activities going is
democracy, open space for different groups to express their opinions
and consensus to continue working as a team.
Civic Tech team must work harder to enlarge the community, create greater open
space for people who work in information technology, the important group for
Civic Tech community, gain better understanding about social issues and
structure of the Thai society. Also, take note of examples and lessons learned
from Civic Tech communities in other countries
For Thailand
