The Henry Luce Foundation is currently funding phase II of the Theravada Civilizations project, which brings together leading scholars of Southeast Asian studies, history, anthropology and religious studies. The group has held an annual meeting in conjunction with the Association of Asian Studies annual meeting as well as an annual conference since 2015. The group is also producing three edited volumes dedicated to the study of Theravada Buddhism.
Asia Mediated is a transdisciplinary project that investigates the multiple ways that new digital media is restructuring different aspects of society and ultimately shaping the way in which knowledge is constructed and produced. This reshaping of knowledge production is significantly transforming our world, and more than half the users of the internet and social media sites such as Facebook are in Asia. The project specifically studies those new media technologies operating in Asia and uses them to disseminate knowledge about the use of these technologies.
