Creating communities of action for a more peaceful, prosperous, and just Asia Pacific region

Leadership education at the East-West Center draws upon a deep well of experience. For over 50 years, the Center has been working with and cultivating leaders from diverse fields across the region. We have done so through an approach that links high-level content with experiential learning and emphasizes practical application of ideas. This approach actively engages leadership challenges with diverse cohorts of participants across disciplinary boundaries and confronts assumptions, stretches perspectives, and inspires action.
