Abstract

The purpose of this research is to 1) investigate air pollution issues in the village of Moo 11, Khlong Hae Subdistrict, Songkhla Province; 2) examine obstacles that have hampered previous attempts to solve these problems; and 3) propose future solutions through collaborative management. The qualitative research methods were employed. Document research, in-depth interviews, and focus group discussions were used to collect data. The key informants for this study are 25 people from different sectors in the areas, including the municipality, community, civil society organization, and manufacturing companies. Data source triangulation was used to validate the data, which were then analyzed using content analysis methods. The following are the study's findings. 1) The major sources of air pollution in this village are dust from the factories in the area, dust from trucks that blow into residences, and health problems caused by the dust. 2) There is currently no formal, collaborative, or proactive mechanism in place to address this issue. 3) This study also reveals that there are some impediments to previous attempts to solve the problems. These include a lack of a dust spreading prevention system in construction companies, climate variability, a lack of public participation due to fear of influential people in the area, a lack of seriousness on the part of village leaders to solve the problem, a lack of concern for people's health in construction companies, and a lack of experts in air pollution in the municipality. 4) In order to improve the management of air pollution in this community, researchers collaborated with residents and stakeholders to develop a mechanism, communication, and process for problem solving based on a collaborative approach. Setting up a four-party committee to monitor the air pollution situation, assigning clear responsibilities and authority to each party, creating a communication channel for this committee using Application Line, and establishing procedures for incident notification, warning the people, and monitoring the progress of problem solving are all part of this.
