During June 4–6, 2025, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Taweesak Kritcharoen, Dean of the Graduate School of Management and Innovation (GMI), King Mongkut’s University of Technology Thonburi (KMUTT), was invited by the Sahathammapijarn Foundation to participate in the training program titled “Inner Development Goals from the Heart of the King.” The program was organized under the “We Oneness” initiative and brought together executives and aspiring leaders committed to advancing the Inner Development Goals (IDG) movement at Suan Sunandha Rajabhat University.

This engagement with like-minded networks focused on inner development marks an important starting point in promoting mental and intellectual well-being — a fundamental foundation for achieving the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) set by the United Nations.

Globally, the IDG movement is gaining momentum, especially with the efforts of Dr. Fredrik Lindencrona, Head of Co-Creation for the IDG initiative in Sweden and a pioneer of this approach in Europe. Assoc. Prof. Dr. Taweesak Kritcharoen expressed his strong commitment to positioning GMI as a leading institution in Thailand for inner development, which he views as a form of social innovation that can accelerate the sustainable realization of the SDGs.
