Innovative practices for collaborative knowledge generation are developing in Thailand, specifically in medicine. Instead of the classical one way vertical communication of information from scientific institutions toward non-specialists, one may observe the raise of practices, within which patients play an active role all along physicists and medical teams’ implication. This new deal matches tacit local knowledge and needs from patients and their relatives, and explicit global scientific knowledge from health and care professionals within a transforming knowledge creation process useful for all the stakeholders. We call this process of knowledge construction in a collective way of “Knowledge Expedition”, because is based on a shared interest of curing and caring, professionals and patients integrate new ways to be, including empathy, open-mindedness and doubtful attitudes in order to provide best conditions for creative communication process. To illustrate this growing trend, this paper will present results from two case studies in health care in Thailand.
