MSAP: Summer 2010 Focus
Aloha! This summer we will be featuring thematic areas and sub-regions in our continuing coverage of the fascinating world of Islam in Asia and the Pacific.
In doing so, we aim to keep up with our commitment to serve as an innovative national resource center for academics and the general public seeking
information on Muslim societies in Asia and the Pacific.
Last week, we featured Islam in China. This week we take a look at Islam in Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific,
so check out our listings, publications and other resources on these diverse Muslim communities in the region. Enjoy this week's offerings and share your thoughts with us about MSAP and our social networking efforts!
Mahalo,
Program Coordinators
