The Centre for Asian Affairs is a University-based think tank for local and central government authorities as well as business support institutions in Poland, Central operating in Asia. The creation of the Centre for Asian Affairs is closely tied to the ever-increasing role of countries located in East Asia economically, politically and culturally, especially China, and the need to observe and monitor the processes occurring in the region. The rising significance of contacts (both business and personal), mainly in China, Japan, South Korea, Wietnam and others countries of Southeast Asia, calls for the creation of a think tank that will be able to provide advice regarding activities conducted by local and central governments as well as business support institutions in Asia. CAA will fulfil an advisory and consultant role, whilst also establishing new contacts with Asian countries that will help conduct various activities at both the local and central government level.
