Introduction
Chiang Mai is Thailand’s second
city with a population of about half
a million people. Situated 800
kilometers North of Bangkok,
Chiang Mai is a city of culture
and tradition in transition.
The city has a distinct culture
(“Lanna”), with more temples than
any other cities in Thailand, and a
lot of historical sites including
portions of an old city wall that are
still intact.
Building on its 700 years of history and heritage as the Northern Capital of culture,
administration, trade and commerce, the city has turned into a tourist, logistical and
educational hub and now has over 100,000 students at eight universities.

Ignite through a small set of catalyst actions
Chiang Mai needed a catalyst, a small set of highly symbolic actions that bring together the
various ingredients in such a way that they "ignite" and create sustainable momentum
