[What’s AsTW?]
The “ASEAN in Today’s World” (AsTW) short-term study abroad program is jointly organized by Kyushu University and leading universities in ASEAN member countries. In the 2026 edition of AsTW, participants will study in English alongside peers from across Asia at Ateneo de Manila University, Philippines, engaging in discussions to explore cross-cultural understanding and multicultural coexistence. Through lectures and cultural experiences, participants will deepen their understanding of the diversity of religion, culture, and history in ASEAN and East Asia!
