MANDATE

The University of Toronto houses one of the strongest concentration of scholars in North America working on Southeast Asia in the social sciences and the humanities. The Southeast Asia Group is a formal group of scholars working and teaching on Southeast Asia at the University of Toronto. The group’s mandate is to provide a forum to discuss, initiate, plan, and coordinate research, teaching, and other activities relating to Southeast Asia. As a constituent unit of the Asian Institute, the Group seeks to complement the broader coordinating role of Asian Studies at the University of Toronto by providing a more focused attention to teaching, research, and other activities relating to Southeast Asian studies.
