Weaving Peace Together (WPT)

The project on ‘Weaving Peace (in the South) Together’ (WPT) was before called ‘Intra-Buddhist dialogue for Majority-Minority Coexistence in Thailand’, which began in 2015, is a project aimed at conflict transformation in the South of Thailand. The Buddhist minority in the southern border provinces has felt marginalized in efforts to address the situation in the South. The sense of exclusion and passive victimhood in the Buddhist community has contributed to their isolation from other communities and their suspicion towards initiatives to build peace in the South. The project’s main engine for change is the group Weaving Peace Together (WPT). The group was established by the project in 2016 as a safe space to build a common understanding amongst different tendencies and groupings within the Buddhist community which will lead on to constructive efforts by the group to contribute to conflict transformation in the South. In order to empower the group, strategies and activities are developed jointly by them and the project partners. To further enhance the ownership of, and commitment to WPT group by its members, specific sub-projects proposed by WPT members are managed directly by sub-groups of WPT.

Public stages were used to create more empathy, more understanding, and bonding across the communities, expanding network for people to take care of one another, as well as design the communities to exchange their experiences through their suffering and loss before becoming friends who support each other in aspects, including healthcare, especially during COVID-19 pandemic.

Automated Framework for AI Federated Learning in Medical Imaging

The “Automated Framework for AI Federated Learning in Medical Imaging” is designed to utilize chest X-ray image data and diagnoses from various medical institutions to train deep learning models in a federated framework without exchanging medical image data between the institutions. This approach ensures privacy and security while still enabling collaborative learning. The resulting federated learning model achieves high accuracy by learning from multiple datasets. Furthermore, the global model can be employed to establish a centralized system providing support to medical institutions lacking their own AI systems.
