Recognizing the EAA Community

The phrase "it takes a village" is certainly applicable when it comes to Education About Asia. Our online journal and community would not exist without the hard work, support, and dedication of numerous individuals and organizations.

First, a special thank you to The Freeman Foundation for its award of a generous start-up grant for 2026 to support the online relaunch and open-access publication of Education About Asia.

We also want to thank the EAA Editorial Board, EAA peer reviewers, EAA fundraising committee, AAS Secretariat Staff, the AAS Board of Directors, and the staff of the National Consortium for Teaching About Asia (NCTA) for making Education About Asia possible.
