THE EAST-WEST CENTER is a public, nonprofit edcational institution es- tablished in Hawaii in 1960 by the United States Congress with a mandate “to promote better relations and understanding among the nations of Asia, the Pacific, and the United States through cooperative study, training, and research.”
Some 2,000 research fellows, graduate students and professionals in busi- ness and government each year work with the Center’s international staff on major Asia-Pacific issues relating to population, economic and trade poli cies, resources and development, the environment, and culture and com- munication. Since 1960, more than 25,000 men and women from the region have participated in the Center’s cooperative programs.
Principal funding for the Center comes from the United States Congress. Support also comes from more than 20 Asian and Pacific governments, as well as private agencies and corporations. The Center has an international board of governors. President Victor Hao Li came to the Center in 1981 af- ter serving as Shelton Professor of International Legal Studies at Stanford University.
THE EAST-WEST POPULATION INSTITUTE, established as a unit of the East- West Center in 1969, carries out multidisciplinary research, training, and related activities in the field of population, placing emphasis on economic, social, psychological, and environmental aspects of population problems in Asia, the Pacific, and the United States.
