SI 1.3 Progression of the Responsible Bodies in Conducting Active Implementation of Health Activities according to HUF

Selected level

Implemented the Action Plan – 37.5 of 50 points

Description

The responsible bodies described in SI 1.2 have moved through all four stages of development. The evidence for each stage is summarised below.

Stage	Evidence at Siam University
1. Established teams	University-level committee and faculty-level units (see SI 1.2), working with the Phasi Charoen District Office through the Phasi Charoen Well-being Node.
2. Developed an action plan	Siam University Strategic Plan, academic years 2567–2571: 5 strategies, 21 strategies and 21 KPIs with yearly targets and responsible units; strategy 20 targets carbon neutrality and a Healthy University (Table SI 1.3.1). Faculties and units turn it into one-year action plans: in AY 2567 they proposed 671 projects (THB 74.5 million), 68 of them under Strategy 5 (Table SI 1.3.2).
3. Implemented the action plan	Health promotion activities carried out across the University, for example: The Last Puff smoking-cessation programme (Faculty of Pharmacy, 2012–2025): about 60 student volunteers and about 40 patients a year. Safety Food City canteen sanitation and food-safety inspections (Semester 1/2025). Siam Walk & Run 2025 (5 April 2025) and Siam Sports Fair / Hukwang Games 2026 (20–29 March 2026). Smoke-free campaigns: “My Space Is Smoke-Free” (23–24 February 2026) and the World No Tobacco Day speech competition (30 May 2026). Opening of the Dental Center (17 June 2026). Activities in 2026: Siam Cares for Health media; NCD risk-reduction forum (22 March 2026); child safety training (20 May 2026); canteen food-sanitation training (13 June 2026); International Day of Yoga (19 June 2026); Kidney-Friendly University campaign (19 August 2026). AY 2567: 341 of 671 projects carried out with spending (THB 24.0 million through the ERP system), 38 of them under Strategy 5 (THB 1.37 million). MoU with the Thai Lifestyle Medicine and Wellbeing Association (17 October 2025).
4. Monitoring and evaluation for continuous improvement	The Last Puff outcome monitoring: 35% quit success rate, 41.94% reduction in cigarette consumption at six months and 92% patient satisfaction. Smoking prevalence on campus fell from 68.10% (2013) to 25.50% (2018–2019). Annual public reporting of results through the Siam University SDG / Sustainability Reports (2021–2022 to 2025–2026). Safety audits with continual improvement under the Safety Policy, and regular canteen inspections by the District Office. Change after review: The Last Puff programme widened its focus to e-cigarette use among young people, and the Green and Clean Campus Policy revised in 2024 added e-cigarettes to the no-smoking campaign. Annual review: the plan summary book (November 2568) reports AY 2567 results against targets – 15 of 17 assessable KPIs met (88.24%). Under Strategy 5, KPIs 16, 18, 20 and 21 were met and KPI 19 was not (4 faculties against more than 5). The 2569/1 version of the plan keeps the same KPIs and targets.

Impact assessment

The Last Puff programme reported an estimated social benefit of about THB 6.5 million against a programme cost of about THB 400,000, together with the reduction in campus smoking prevalence shown above (SDG Report 2024–2025, p. 29).
