Dear Prof. Hongladarom,
May I ask you for an advise concerning this conference? I am researching on technology ethics from an intercultural perspective. I follow your activities because of your impressive work at the intersection of Buddhist ethics and technology assessment. I elaborated a concept for a constructivist reading of Buddhist epistemology and ethics and how that proves useful in the applied context of technology ethics. Would this conference be a suitable platform to present it? Is this CfP targeting researchers from Thailand and those who have a connection with Thailand (I am German, working in Taiwan)? Would you recommend that I submit an abstract, or do you believe it is too far from the theme of the conference? Thank you in advance for your reply!
Best regards,
J. Mehlich
