Fifteenth ASEF University, Wanju, Korea, June - July 2009
The fifteenth edition of the ASEF University (AU15) was co-organised with Woosuk University from 29 June - 10 July 2009 in Wanju, Republic of Korea.
The theme was " Migration and Multi-Cultural Societies: Opportunities and Challenges". A total of 39 outstanding students from 30 ASEM countries participated in two-week programme. They attended 14 lectures delivered by European and Asian experts in the field of migration. Each lecture was followed by a Q&A session and working groups for discussion on topics related to the lecture.
On the last day of the programme, the participants produced recommendations in sub-topics related to migration and multicultural societies to be addressed to relevant bodies in ASEM countries. The active exchange of ideas and experiences among AU15 participants has contributed to the promotion of solid linkages and cross-cultural understanding between the two regions.
