Pacific Prospective features the research of graduate students.
Students in the Master of Arts – Asia Pacific Policy Studies (MAAPPS) program at the Institute of Asian Research at The University of British Columbia have written a majority of the Memos published under Pacific Prospective. But we continue to feature the work of graduate students around the world.
If you are a graduate student, and are interested in writing a piece for Asia Pacific Memo’s Pacific Prospective, please see “Become a Contributor“.
