Our Mission
The United Board for Christian Higher Education in Asia works to support a Christian presence in academic communities in Asia. The work of the United Board centers on the Christian faith, higher education and Asia.
In Asian countries with church-related
colleges and universities, we cooperate with those
institutions to strengthen their Christian identity.
In countries where church-related
colleges and universities do not presently exist, we
emphasize projects and programs that are consistent with our
commitment to Christian values, perspectives and concerns.
In all cases, we work in partnership
with institutions of higher education. We support
professional training for faculty, administrators and
trustees
to promote academic and institutional excellence. We
support
linkages and networks among Board-related institutions to
enhance regional interaction and cooperation. Operating
as
both a grant-making and programmatic organization, we focus
on comprehensive programs that respond to the
challenges
and diversity of Asia. |
