Asia-Pacific Programme

Our research focuses on political, economic and social developments across Asia and the Pacific.

We provide objective analysis of the key issues affecting South Asia, Southeast Asia, East Asia and the Pacific. We engage decision-makers and undertake original research with partners in the region to ensure our work informs and influences positive policy decisions.

Our work is interdisciplinary and aims to challenge conventional thinking on Asia. Through our events and publications, we also aim to stimulate understanding of the fundamental questions raised by the rise of the region.
