Security for women from female-headed households in Thailand

本研究旨在了解泰国女性社区的生活安全体验。目前，研究的重点是泰国贫困女性社区，例如来自少数族裔家庭结构和/或低收入的社区。通过收集地理学、安全学和女权主义研究等方面的相关文献，我的目标是全面了解泰国女性的安全，包括本体论、社会学和技术学。最终，这项研究试图澄清泰国贫困女性社区的安全机会和挑战。我希望这些发现还将有助于采取扎实、有目的的行动，改善泰国妇女的技术获取和安全做法，希望这将支持各组织，促进有目的的行动，提高这些社区获得技术的机会，并提高全球学术界对泰国技术需求的认识。我还将强调，泰国妇女的生活安全体验和数字安全并不反映这些社区感受到的安全和数字访问。因此，本论文旨在围绕泰国女性的安全、安全空间和本体安全提出重要问题，以及它们与数字接入和安全的关系。本文将借鉴相关文献，并在安全的框架内，包括但不限于家庭和家庭的概念、本体论安全、女性户主家庭和数字安全。数据收集将通过人种学方法进行，主要是通过在泰国各地的妇女中心工作。还可以通过采访相关行业专业人士、学者、政府官员和其他相关利益相关者来收集数据。文献和田野调查结果将通过重点分析森的能力方法并试图将他的方法付诸实施，例如Martha Nussbaum和Dorothea Kleine的选择框架的工作。这一办法允许采取一种自下而上的办法，突出分析社区具体安全需要和愿望的重要性。然后，这些发现将在泰国贫困女性社区的数字可访问性、可用性和安全性的背景下进行框定。

This research seeks to understand the lived security experiences of female communities in Thailand. Currently, research focuses on underprivileged female Thai communities, such as those from minority household structures and/or low income. By drawing together relevant literature from geography, security, and feminist studies, amongst others, I aim to gain a complete understanding of security for Thai women, including ontological, societal, and technological. Ultimately, this research seeks to clarify the security opportunities and challenges of underprivileged female Thai communities. I hope the findings will also contribute to ground-up, purposeful action to improve technological access and security practices for women in Thailand, which will hopefully support organisations, contribute to purposeful action to enhance technological access for these communities and raise awareness of Thailand's technological needs within various global academic communities. I will also highlight that the lived security experiences and digital security for women in Thailand do not reflect the perceived security and digital access for these communities. Thus, this thesis will aim to raise important questions around Thai women's safety, safe spaces and ontological security and how they relate to digital access and security. The thesis will draw upon relevant literature and framed within the context of security, including, but not limited to, notions of the home and family, ontological security, female-headed households, and digital security. Data collection will occur through ethnographic methods, primarily through working within women's centres across Thailand. Data may also be collected through interviews with relevant industry professionals, academics, government officials, and other relevant stakeholders. Literature and fieldwork findings will then be analysed through a focus on Sen's Capabilities Approach and attempts to operationalise his approach, such as the work of Martha Nussbaum and Dorothea Kleine's Choice Framework. This approach permits a ground-up approach that will highlight the importance of analysing community-specific security needs and wants. These findings will then be framed within the context of digital accessibility, usability, and security within underprivileged female Thai communities.
