PHILIPPINE STUDIES PROGRAMS ABROAD
The Sulo Philippine Studies Initiative at NYU is a collaborative effort, supported by the Philippine Consulate General in New York, designed to create an innovative and interdisciplinary academic program. By leveraging NYU’s expertise in related fields like History, Sociology, and Asian/Pacific/American Studies, the initiative aims to advance scholarship on Philippine histories, cultures, and migrations within both local and global contexts. Ultimately, the program seeks to serve as a regional leader in the field, engaging with the large Filipino and Filipino-American community residing in the Tri-State Area.
The Sulo program, initiated by Philippine Senator Loren B. Legarda, focuses on expanding the interdisciplinary study of the Philippines to address the needs of Filipino immigrants in the United States. Its mission involves supporting the next generation of scholars through grants and fellowships, creating platforms for dialogue on historical and contemporary issues, and developing innovative courses. Furthermore, the program encourages the study of the Filipino language and builds global networks between scholars and artists, placing Philippine culture and history within a broad context that includes Southeast Asia, the Asia-Pacific, Latin America, Europe, and the United States.
