The Clarewood Institute
The mission of the Clarewood institute is to support educational, cultural and research activities. The Institute
operates programs in the areas of cultural exchange, specialized research and professional development.
Some of the programs are in partnership with Clarewood University, which is based in Northern Virginia near
Washington DC.
The Clarewood Institute is in working relationships with the Center for Asian Politics and Policy (CAPP)
and the Asian Politics and History Association (APHA), which publishes an academic journal, Journal of
Asian Politics and History (JAPH). In support of APHA's annual conferences, the Institute conducts activities
such as program development, conference organization and logistic support.
The institute has been involved in early childhood education since its inception. Working with practitioners and
professionals in the US and from abroad, Clarewood developed an English text book series for preschool
children of non-native English speakers.
The Center for New-media and Cross-culture Studies (CNCS) is sponsored by Clarewood University and it is
in partnership with the Clarewood Institute.
