\nNortheast Thailand is one of places where CSEAS is most familiar with, a lot of the staffs have been involved, and knowledge, experience and networks have been accumulated in CSEAS through many research projects ever done. A new collaborative research project with Faculty of Agriculture, Khon Kaen University (KKU) is in progress, and this conference is a report meeting and to find research agenda in the future as well. The project aims at catching rapid changes in agriculture and life and integrated understanding of the changes through examining all of factors associated. Prof. Terry Rambo from KKU, who is a former staff in CSEAS, leads the project and Prof. Yasuyuki Kono is a leading member of the project.\n<\/p>\n

\nThirty-one researchers and graduated students (10 Japanese, 3 Americans and 18 Thais) joined the conference and 9 researchers gave a talk. It made up of 4 main sessions as \u201cChanges in land use and agriculture\u201d, \u201cRural households and communities\u201d, \u201cPopulation aging and health\u201d and \u201cPanel discussion\u201d. From CSEAS, Prof. Yasuyuki Kono and Prof. Kozo Matsubayashi were speakers.

\nIn panel discussion, Assoc. Prof. Suchint Simaraks (KKU), Adjunct prof. Chai Podhisita (Mahidol University), Dr. Jefferson M.

Especially, the panelists, including Assoc.Prof. Attachai Jintrawet (Chiang Mai University) from the floor, had a common sense that rapid transformation in land use, farming system and household are intricately involved with a range of factors like development of communication tools, globally mounting concerns about environment, changes in eating habits etc. and an analytic framework be able to integrate the factors have to be developed. Prof. Rambo and Prof. Kono recapitulated the conference and underlined significance of integration of more than a hundred of research papers ever done in northeast Thailand and a range of statistics been accumulated in Thailand.<\/p>","excerpt":"","slug":"20140916","image":false,"all_day":false,"start_date":"2014-09-16 08:00:00","start_date_details":{"year":"2014","month":"09","day":"16","hour":"08","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"end_date":"2014-09-16 17:00:00","end_date_details":{"year":"2014","month":"09","day":"16","hour":"17","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"utc_start_date":null,"utc_start_date_details":{"year":"1970","month":"01","day":"01","hour":"00","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"utc_end_date":null,"utc_end_date_details":{"year":"1970","month":"01","day":"01","hour":"00","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"timezone":"","timezone_abbr":"","cost":"","cost_details":{"currency_symbol":"$","currency_position":"prefix","values":[]},"website":"","show_map":true,"show_map_link":true,"hide_from_listings":false,"sticky":false,"featured":false,"categories":[{"name":"NetWorking","slug":"network-en","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":17,"taxonomy":"tribe_events_cat","description":"","parent":0,"count":47,"filter":"raw","id":17,"urls":{"self":"http:\/\/www-archive.cseas.kyoto-u.ac.jp\/sea-sh\/en\/wp-json\/tribe\/events\/v1\/categories\/17","collection":"http:\/\/www-archive.cseas.kyoto-u.ac.jp\/sea-sh\/en\/wp-json\/tribe\/events\/v1\/categories"}}],"tags":[],"venue":[],"organizer":[],"json_ld":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org","@type":"Event","name":"KKU-CSEAS Conference on Rural Northeast Thailand in Transition: Land Use, Farming Systems and Households","description":"<p>Date: 16 September, 2014 Venue: Faculty of Agriculture, Khon Kaen University Program » Record of Activity: Rural Northeast Thailand in Transition: Land Use, Farming Systems and Households Northeast Thailand is one of places where CSEAS is most familiar with, a lot of the staffs have been involved, and knowledge, experience and networks have been accumulated in CSEAS through many research projects ever done.
