community. Such strong cultural diversity helps to enhance creativity amongst students
which leads to promote better understanding.

At AEI, you will realize that we have many public outreach activities, such as academic
seminars, lectures and cultural showcases. It is one of the benefits of studying at AEI;
numerous opportunities to listen to top-notch intellects describe the status quo and the
way forward in economics, politics and history. You can unwind and relax by watching
movies from all ASEM nations. Thanks to events of international dimension, such as the
“International Conference on Lifelong Learning” and the visit of European students for
the “Young Europe Meets Asia” event, to Seminars and Round Tables, AEI is actively
developing a multicultural and interactive environment for creating, sharing and
respecting ideas and promoting mutual understanding between Asia and Europe on
political, economic and cultural issues.
