JASAS is focused on creating both intercultural & intergenerational links with the sole purpose of facilitating dialogue amongst participants on issues affecting both the African & Asian continents.
The JASAS (Japan Society for Afrasian Studies, former AASI) is a multi-disciplinary research platform of African studies in Japan/Asia (and potentially of Japanese/Asian studies in Africa). We live in a rapidly globalizing, or half globalized world. With migration, massive trade and advanced IT tools, the interface between Africa and Asia is expanding at unprecedented rate in numerous fronts: business, culture, politics and reflective academic collaboration.
