one of the top universities in the Asia-Pacific region. This will be the
fifth time the University has hosted an NZASIA conference since the
inaugural event in 1974.  Modern Asian Studies in New Zealand is also
celebrating fifty years.

the world¹s most culturally diverse city, with large communities of Asian
and Polynesian heritages.
