Asian Universities Digital Resource Network-International Research Conference on Local Knowledge 2020
Father Saturnino Urios University, Butuan City | February 7-8, 2020
Theme : Disrupting Local Knowledge (Re)Discovery via Technologies of the 4th Industrial Revolution
We live on the verge of a technological revolution that will basically change the way we live, work, and relate to one another. In its extent and intricacy, the changes will be unlike anything we have experienced before. The emergence and the continuing (d)evolution of the Internet have greatly altered our motivations, methods, understandings of and responses to researches on local knowledge. In the troughs of rampant globalization and the fast-changing technologies which enable it, such as the Internet of Things (IoT), robotics, virtual reality (VR) and artificial intelligence (AI), the academe, especially the social sciences, is placed at a crucible to look deeper into these phenomena. The academe is entrusted to serve as the seers, critics and game changers in a world now brought to a sudden flux by the 4th Industrial Revolution.
Universities and educational institutions have fortified their programs on local research vis-à-vis globalization and the continuing technological advancement. The multifaceted solutions and approaches offered by new technologies definitely require a deeper, more critical examination in relation to their impact to local knowledge and identity.
Being the fourth, this year’s AUDRN research conference with the theme “Disrupting Local Knowledge (Re)discovery via Technologies of the 4th Industrial Revolution” will look into the possible effects of the Fourth Industrial Revolution on the efforts to preserve, conserve, and/or (re)discover local knowledge and to think strategically about the forces of disruption and innovation shaping the future.
Researchers and other professionals from government and non-government institutions are invited to present their papers which discuss how their respective disciplines contribute to the efforts in local knowledge initiatives.
Sub-Themes:
Interested presenters are requested to send abstracts in 250-300 words on or before December 15, 2019 (Extended: January 6, 2020) and will be notified of their acceptance after the submission.
Accepted proposals will be delivered in the breakout sessions on February 8, 2020 at the FSUU CBE Function Hall, Father Saturnino Urios University, Butuan City. Presenters are allotted 20 minutes (approximately 2500 words) each and an open forum follows.
Registration Fees:
- Php 2,500.00 (in excess of the five participants (president, AUDRN coordinator and 3 faculty) from AUDRN partner schools)
- Php 3,500.00 for non-AUDRN partner schools
