The summer school themed \u201cCultural Diversity in Asia and Europe\u201d was held in Kuala Lumpur from 30th July to 10 August 2018. 22 students from 11 ASEM partners; United Kingdom, Italy, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, Japan, South Korea, China, Bangladesh, Laos and Singapore participated in the fourth summer school. Although the initial idea was to \u201covercome the imbalance in mobility between Asia and Europe\u201d and identify \u201ca strategy on better balancing mobility\u201d, the 4th project received more participants from Asia compared to Europe.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>\u201c<\/strong>This summer school has been an amazing opportunity to meet people from all walks of life and learn more about Asia. For example, before coming to Malaysia I had never heard of ASEAN. Global awareness is really important in a globalising world so the overall experience has been very rewarding.\u00a0 Overall, I would recommend this to everyone, plus have made some lifelong friends.\u201d \u2013\u00a0<strong>Elliot Miles, United Kingdom<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The programme was officially opened by the Executive Director of AEI, UM, Professor Dr Azirah Hashim. In her speech, she highlighted that AEI, UM and Ministry of Education Malaysia are committed to organising the Summer School as a<strong>\u00a0strategy to overcome the imbalance of mobility between Asia and Europe<\/strong>. She also mentioned and reinforced that the 4th Summer School will become a unique platform for participants to understand Malaysia and its cultural diversity in the context of multiculturalism in Asia and Europe. This summer school became an opportunity for\u00a0<strong>intercultural understanding between European and Asian participants<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The 4th Summer School employed diverse approaches that emphasised interdisciplinary learning, intercultural exchanges, cultural immersion, and appreciation of inclusiveness, cultural diversity and harmony-building in the Asian region.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cThe AEI Summer School has been an enriching and intellectually stimulating experience.\u00a0 It has allowed me to gain a deeper understanding and appreciation of cultural diversity \u2013 providing me with opportunities to learn about Malaysia and the world amidst a wonderful group of like-minded students. Highly recommended!\u201d \u2013\u00a0<strong>Nabil Khairul Anwar, Singapore<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Participants experienced lecture modules assimilated with a strategic mix of activities, field trips and knowledge gaining as well as skills building activities. This provides practical and valuable learning experiences to all the participants. The lectures and field trips comprised of a diverse range of modules which included:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Malaysia: The Past, Present and Future;<\/li>\n<li>Crisis-Migration in Asia and Europe: Challenges and Reactions;<\/li>\n<li>Indigenous Society in Malaysia;<\/li>\n<li>Multiculturalism in Europe: Identity, Ethnic and Diversity;<\/li>\n<li>Cultural Diversity in Asia and Europe;<\/li>\n<li>Malaysia: The Road to Nationhood;<\/li>\n<li>Cultural Diversity in Asia: Music and Movements;<\/li>\n<li>The World of Cinema: Through the Lenses of Asia and Europe;<\/li>\n<li>Religious Pluralism in Asia: Southeast Asia and Beyond;<\/li>\n<li>The Challenges of Pluralism and the Future of Cultural Diversity.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The two weeks programme ended with an experience sharing session by the participants and a certificate awarding ceremony. The participants\u2019 certificates were signed by the Minister of Education Malaysia and the Executive Director of AEI, UM.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cThe AEI Summer School has been giving me a lot of knowledge, opportunities and experiences. I learnt a lot about cultural diversity in Malaysia.\u201d \u2013\u00a0<strong>Phannpha, Laos<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The 5<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a0Summer School will be held next year summer in collaboration with the University of Limerick, Ireland.
