Asia has been undergoing a historic transformation that has often been referred to as the “Asian Century.” Representing 60% of the world’s population and 4 of the 10 largest economies, Asia plays a critical and ever-expanding role on the global stage. Transnational flows of people, goods, and ideas in and out of Asia have fueled much of the rapid change within the region and increased its influence abroad. As the world wrestles with issues of globalization, environmental sustainability, health, and labor migration, Asia’s impact on these issues defines many research questions spanning both academic and professional disciplines. On February 3-4, 2023, EDT and February 4-5, 2023, PST the faculties of the Asian Center, University of the Philippines Diliman, and the Asian Studies Center, University of Pittsburgh will join to deliver presentations that focus on several aspects of Global Asia.
