The “Consumers and Retailers Driving Sustainable Food Market in Thailand in the Seafood, Chicken and Banana Supply Chains” Project is supported by the European Union under its SWITCH Asia II Programme. This project runs from 1 January 2018 – 31 December 2021, with the aim to drive transformation of food market in Thailand towards becoming more environmentally sustainable, socially responsible, and caring for consumer welfare. The specific objective is for the urban consumers and retailers in Thailand to drive the development of a food market system that increases sustainable food consumption, particularly in the seafood, chicken and banana/orange supply chains. It consists of 4 work components:
|
Result 1 |
Consumer/public awareness campaign and communication |
|
Result 2 |
Retailer engagement |
|
Result 3 |
Building capacity of small producers and MSMEs and linking them to retailers and fresh markets |
|
Result 4 |
Convening multi-stakeholders spaces to find solutions for focus supply chains |
The Dear Consumers, originally known as Dear Supermarkets, campaign holds together the key works and activities to deliver the Result 1. It aims to have women and men urban consumers in the target cities and online platforms increasingly demand target food products that meet sustainable and equitable sourcing standards from retailers. The campaign directly engages with stakeholders and the groups of public consumers themselves for the purpose of raising the awareness and mobilizing the movement and actions to make or contribute to changes. Since the official launch of the campaign in July 2018, the campaign has continued working and promoting to raise more consumer awareness. Since then, press conferences have been organized to release the results of scorecard assessment of top Thailand’s supermarkets in social policy. The campaign continues to work with Change.org to support the active citizens as consumers on the petition calling on supermarkets to source and sell “good food” that does not take advantage of anyone involved in the supply chains. Simultaneously, the online communication platform is on Facebook page @DearConsumers and Instagram @DearConsumers.
Amidst the COVID-19 pandemic and implemented restrictions on public mobility, the Dear Consumers campaign has shifted most of its activities and events to digital platform, while maintaining the focus on delivering key campaign messages in new demands. As the final year of project implementation, creative opportunity is explored to wrap up overall campaign messages on consumer voices and actions in contribution to the transformation of food supply chain. Film and/or documentary screening has proven to be an effective approach in doing so.
The key objective of this initiative is to engage with public consumers in order to:
