About
The Anthropocene in recent years may have reflected an imbalance of prior developments in the world. We are then obliged to be more concerned with sustainable development and take into account geography, environment, biological forms, livelihood, tradition, custom culture, and other factors that will influence planned development before appropriately adapting them to fit each community.
The future development is required to be associated with reality, not just theory, and responds to the community’s needs. While a number of studies and research grants are currently observed, the meeting space for knowledge production and development is still deficient. The Research Center integrates the “Geosocial and Culture” approach to the Glocalization concept. It aims to establish a link and strengthen the existing networks in research studies and sustainable development under the topic of geosocial and culture in Asia and beyond.
Vision
The center will broaden the frontier knowledge for social and economic benefits by growing local strength and pride, cherishing cultural diversity, and valuing cultural heritage. The geosocial and cultural data are the critical issues for dimensional cross-disciplinary analysis, which involves exploration and identification of knowledge gaps and knowledge ecosystems relevant to the 21st century. The center also supports the creative economy and local tourism through transdisciplinary research.
Mission
- 1. Create and develop the body of knowledge of geosocial and culture for community and sustainable development
- 2. Disseminate knowledge and being a reference source, nationally and internationally
- 3. Support and promote research that create values applicable to local, regional and international levels
- 4. Set up networks to work on research and development projects with other academic organizations in the government, community, academic, professional, activist, and private sectors, both nationally and internationally.
