Asian Currents is a collection of stories and research papers written by journalists from all over Asia who came together in pursuit of the Master’s degree in journalism, a program of the Konrad Adenauer Asian Center for Journalism (ACFJ) at the Ateneo de Manila University. Each piece was originally submitted as a Master’s Project, the final requirement for the degree. The project is either a work in journalism such as an in-depth or investigative report, or a study of journalism institutions, practices and processes.
It represents a synthesis of the journalist-student’s accumulated knowledge, skills and values, and is an opportunity to contribute insights and new knowledge on issues of importance to Asia. Each issue of Asian Currents carries the works of a batch of graduates of the Master’s program.
