Workshop Proceedings Alternative Practices of Peoples in Southeast Asia Towards Alternative Regionalism
Description
For many years, Southeast Asia has been engaged with alternatives that are considered as heterodox practices based on economic, social, and political culture. There is a need to surface these practices based on greater people-to-people interaction based on the practices of communities.
Three cases of alternative practices were discussed in a workshop that was organized by the Program on Alternative Development (AltDev) of the UP Center for Integrative and Development Studies (UP CIDS) during the ASEAN Civil Society Conference/ASEAN Peoples’ Forum (ACSC/APF) 2019 held last September 2019 in Bangkok, Thailand. These were the Mae Tao Clinic located in Mae Sot at the Thai-Burma border, the community-managed fisheries in Cambodia, and the continuing campaign against the Pak Mun Dam in Thailand.
