The Center for Asian Studies is pleased to announce the return of the South, Southeast, and West Asia (SSEWA) Outreach Program, made possible by a $2.2 million grant from the U.S. Department of Education.

SSEWA-focused outreach expands the Center for Asian Studies’ efforts to connect curriculum development to Asian Studies research and scholarship and strengthens its status as a National Resource Center (NRC) for Asian Studies.
The revived SSEWA outreach program seeks to provide K-14 educators with opportunities for educational enrichment and professional development relating to the vast SSEWA regions. A series of Saturday workshops and an intensive summer program are in the pipeline for educators in the Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ Front Range. An online database of curriculum materials and links to national resources related to SSEWA studies is also being developed to cater to a wider audience.
