New Zealand Asian Studies Society

The New Zealand Asian Studies Society (NZASIA) was established in 1974. It is an independent academic society that seeks to encourage the spread of knowledge about Asia, its history, its culture, and its role in international affairs. The society publishes the biannual journal New Zealand Journal of Asian Studies (ISSN 1174-8915) and a yearly newsletter. The NZASIA, in cooperation with the Asia:NZ Foundation, offers post-graduate scholarships to support research and fieldwork in Asia. It has also published a series of Occasional Papers.
