Sponsored by Penn State’s Department of Asian Studies and the College of the Liberal Arts, the Global Asias Initiative (GAI) encompasses several projects that relate, but not necessarily align, work in Asian studies, Asian American studies, and Asian Diaspora studies. This initiative cultivates multi-disciplinary collaboration through the work of an award-winning journal, Verge: Studies in Global Asias; the biennial Global Asias conference; and the annual Global Asias Summer Institute.
