Governance

      Oversight

JCI is governed by an Executive Council, which is responsible for the Institute’s overall direction and organisation.

    Global Drive

The International Academic Advisory Council, comprising the world’s leading scholars of Asia, provides advice on research priorities and academic initiatives.

    Partnerships

Our governance is designed to strengthen research and teaching ties with universities and think-tanks, including Sunway University and Harvard University.
