MEARC Products

Research done under the auspices of MEARC will always result in a tangible, public product. By making our research outcomes visible to various audiences, MEARC demonstrates its value to its four key audience groups (scholars, policy-makers, business-leaders, and the educated public).

Product range

At the moment, MEARC offers the following deliverables:
International conferences, workshops, research seminars and a lecture series on Modern East Asia.

  • A visiting scholars programme
  • Writing-up grants for recent PhD graduates to revise their PhD thesis into a book

  • Research support (financial and other) to Leiden University based and affiliated researchers to facilitate excellence in research products
  • The construction of a select, dynamic and nationally and internationally renowned group of research affiliates
