 <\/p>\n

Staying informed about global events, especially in East Asia, can be overwhelming with the constant flood of news. That’s why we offered Behind the Headlines<\/strong><\/em>, an online series designed specifically for teachers. This series provided a clear and insightful overview of recent developments in Taiwan, South and North Korea, China, Xinjiang, Japan, and Hong Kong<\/strong>. Renowned regional experts shared in-depth analyses and context, helping educators better understand the complexities of these regions. Participants also had the chance to engage directly with the experts, asking questions that matter most to you, fostering a rich and educational discussion on the current state of East Asia. The speakers included distinguished faculty from the Jackson School of International Studies at the University of Washington and other leading institutions. This was a unique opportunity to enhance teachers’ knowledge and bring fresh perspectives to their classroom.<\/p>\n
