AJA and TEPI Korea to publish ‘Asian Review of Youth’
On May 19th, 2014, former President Sang-Ki Lee of the Asia Journalist Association(AJA), Publisher of Magazine N and President Gang Ryol Lee of TEPI Korea agreed to hold a meeting to discuss the publication of the Asian Review of Youth(AROY) journal. The agreement was signed at the N editorial office located in Jongro-gu, Seoul, South Korea .
AROY, run on a non-profit basis, is the first ever journal in Asia designed to bring the writing pieces of youths from designated nations together to partake in critiques. This public contest will be held twice a year and be published in both online and offline settings.
AROY plans to further develop the youths of Asia who will become the global leaders in fields such as humanities and social sciences as well as help these youths improve their creative and critical thinking skills.
The young scholars of each nation participating in AROY can send in critiques on their interested topic. This will then be examined by the experts of each field comprised of professionals and university professors. AROY will award the journals that these judging professionals deem fit.
The Concord Review is a review organization in America designed much like AROY but specialized only in the subject of history. These journal entries and awards from the Concord Review are highly regarded. Many top tier universities such as Harvard, Princeton, and Stanford University regard this as a highly essential element for the students in their application pool.
