STAKEHOLDER CONFERENCE:
TRANSDISCIPLINARY APPROACHES TO MIGRATION, ENVIRONMENTAL CHANGE, AND SOCIAL INEQUALITY

[21 - 22 June 2017]

At the Faculty of Political Science, Chulalongkorn university

Background

Many contemporary development challenges in Southeast Asia are complex and inter-related, including environmental degradation; migration; and social inequality. To appropriately understand these challenges and identify novel insights and innovative solutions, transdisciplinary approaches are required. Not only does this therefore require new research methodologies and new skills for researchers and practitioners, but it also requires universities to develop new curriculum, teaching/ learning materials, and programs.

Event Objectives

- To deepen understanding on development challenges in Southeast Asia as viewed through a transdisciplinary lens, focusing on environmental degradation; migration; and social inequality
- To inform KNOTS project design towards establishing innovative teaching methodologies with contribution from academics and non-academic stakeholders in Southeast Asia
- To contribute towards establishing a “transdisciplinary knowledge network” on Southeast Asia
