THEME
Development of Indigenous Psychology in Southeast Asia: Past, Present, and Future
This first scientific meeting hopes to bring together scholars from all over the globe to empower the local psychologists in SEA regions to conduct indigenous and culturally relevant research, which could widen the conceptual space in global psychological research. We also aim to include under-represented psychologists from the less-developed countries in SEA regions, to amplify their voices and concerns for an equitable global psychology.
OBJECTIVES
​
-
Empowerment of “indigenous psychology” young scholars in SEA
-
Addressing the culturally relevant issues in SEA through IP research methodology
-
Uncovering the indigenous knowledge espoused by the indigenous populations and minorities in SEA
