Class on Southeast Asia for International Relations Students of the University of Mataram, Indonesia (closed event)
16 August, 2019 @ 10:30 am - 12:30 pm
The University of Mataram (Universitas Mataram) in Lombok, Indonesia is organizing a study visit to Thailand for students in the faculty of Political Sciences and International Development to enhance their understanding of neighboring countries and regional processes. They will be expected to apply their theoretical knowledge to socio-conomic and cultural issues, including tourism, to the discovery of Thailand while also promoting the still relatively less known province of West Nusa Tenggara.
As part of the study visit, they will be coming to SEA Junction on 16 August at 10.30am and our director Rosalia Sciortino will present on Southeast Asia and discuss how SEA Junction operates to promote knowledge exchange and interaction on Southeast Asia.
