At the end of each year, most people reflect on the events and accomplishments of the previous twelve months. The Asia Program had a very eventful year in 2022, from our impactful coverage of world events to hosting our first in person and hybrid discussion in two years. We have also celebrated promotions for several of our staff members and the launch of many new publications.
Thank you for supporting us and joining our programming in the past year, we are looking forward to greeting 2023 with you.
