Chiang Mai Creative City (Thai: เชียงใหม่เมืองสร้างสรรค์) is an initiative to develop Chiang Mai into a creative city.[1] A creative city is a city where cultural and creative activities are an integral part of the city's economic and social functioning.[2] The experience of other cities which have implemented such strategies has shown that they can be more successful (with meeting their development objectives) than cities which have not.[3] On 31 October 2017, Chiang Mai has been designated as a UNESCO Crafts and Folk Art Creative Cities Network.[4]
