LEWI was established in 1993 with the aim to foster inter-disciplinary social science and humanities research and cultivate collaborative scholarship between the East and the West. Over the years LEWI has made strenuous efforts in performing and reconciling its dual roles as an international consortium of universities and a university-wide research unit.
