The South Asia Initiative produces both research and analysis. In doing so, it aims to build a strong research environment with an international impact. The South Asia Initiative website will feature a blog that disseminates knowledge and information about South Asia.
“South Asia has been standing in the shadow of China and East Asia in Sweden for some time, which is unfortunate. The development in India and South Asia is very important for Sweden and Europe. This collaboration will give us the opportunity to highlight this, both in the public discourse and to policymakers,” says Andreas Johansson, researcher at Lund University and director of SASNET.
