SUMMARY:Asia and Asians at Harvard Conference
DESCRIPTION:Asia and Asians at Harvard Conference\n\n  \nHarvard’s enduring engagement with Asia has shaped scholarly inquiry\, public policy\, and campus life—within the University and across the region. This two-day conference convenes faculty\, students\, alumni\, and institutional partners from across Schools and disciplines to examine the evolving relationship between Harvard and Asia from the late nineteenth century to the present and to consider paths forward. \nThrough a series of presentations\, the program revisits formative encounters\, collaborations\, and institutional linkages; recognizes the contributions of Asian students\, scholars\, and visitors who have transformed fields and enriched the University; and offers an assessment of Harvard’s roles in U.S. policy\, development\, and institution-building in Asia\, acknowledging both contributions and consequences. \nLooking ahead\, the conference asks how Harvard can advance more inclusive\, equitable\, and regionally balanced approaches to the study of Asia and to University engagement with the region—strengthening partnerships\, deepening interdisciplinary research and teaching\, and enhancing public impact. \nRegistration is not required but appreciated for planning purposes. \n  \nTwo-Day Conference\nDay 1: Thursday\, November 13\, 2025\nCGIS South\, 1730 Cambridge Street\n4:00 p.m. – 5:30 p.m.\nOpening and Introductions\nMichael Puett\, Victor and William Fung Foundation Director\, Harvard University Asia Center; Walter C.
