Abstract

The objectives of the community innovation development research are to develop community innovations for enhancing the basic economy in the Songkhla Lake Basin, Songkhla Province and to drive the community innovations into local plans for generating income and increasing the competitiveness in target communities. The university has been a development of a system and mechanism for managing research and developing the area that attaches importance to the participatory process including researchers, university, administrators, and local community. The stakeholders supporting the community innovation development research for sustainable development divided into 3 steps are 1) upstream management consists of mechanisms for developing research frameworks and establishing a mechanism for cooperation with local partners, 2) midstream management consists of facilitating researchers and developing skills for researchers, and 3) downstream management consists of assessing the research report, quality checks, and building acceptance of research output. Results of the development on community innovation for raising local economy in Songkhla lake basin, Songkhla Province have establishing a mechanism for cooperation with local partners, training to educate about the impact assessment of research, and progressing the reports followed for 3 and 6 months. Meanwhile, in 9 months, the progress was monitored in the community areas of the sub-projects, and in 12 months, a full research report was followed. As a result of the research in 7 districts and 12 sub-districts, there were community innovations that occurred under the research plan as follows: 1) innovative water quality monitoring system used in raising snapper, 2) innovative tracking system for snapper products by identifying the origin of products in QR code, 3) innovation of hot air incubator for banana flour production, 4) grinder innovation banana powder, 5) innovative formula and production process of banana flour for the community, 6) banana rubber product innovation in fashion event, 7) innovative wall decoration materials from banana bracts, 8) innovative materials for wall decoration in palm sugar, 9) innovative smart rice seed dryer, 10) innovative quality local rice seed production process, 11) solar-powered tilapia drying tank for raising community standards, 12) innovation of quality tilapia production process for communities, 13) innovation of Node Na Le way of tourism with AR technology, and 14) innovation of maintenance management system platform innovation, spatial innovation, and development of innovations to community sage, etc. In addition, from the research operation, there were 215 community innovators under this project. There were 215 community innovators producing in the Songkhla lake basin, consisting of 14 community innovators at level 2 with the ability to analyze problems, 107 community innovators at level 3 with ability to solve problems, 62 community innovators at level 4 with knowledge and understanding of knowledge transfer, and 31 community innovators at level 5 with ability to develop plans for government agencies and connection. Further, 28 platforms of learning and innovation platform (LIP) were created, as well as a mechanism to drive innovation programs into 10 sub-district/local programs. Finally, the community has a change in income by average increase about 105.65%
