ARENA is launching an MA programme in Inter-Asia NGO Studies (MAINS) from this March, jointly with the Inter-Asia Graduate School of NGO Studies at SungKongHoe University. This is a unique programme offered by a regional NGO and a university - a multidisciplinary curriculum integrating academic and practitioners’ training with dynamic changes occurring in Asia and the globe.

The curriculum covers a wide range of current issues of international relations from both regional and global perspectives as a major field of studies, placing a special focus on the development of solidarity among civil society constituents.
