Southeast Asia Program

The Southeast Asia Program (SEAP) was founded in 1950 to promote the acquisition and dissemination of knowledge about countries, cultures, and languages of the region. Since 1958, the U.S. Department of Education has continuously recognized SEAP as a Title VI National Resource Center. It is one of the world’s greatest concentrations of expertise on Southeast Asia.
