A The APLP is a nine-month program (mid-August to mid-May) with an initial five-month residency requirement in Hawaii. This means you live in Honolulu for a minimum period of August December. However, you may choose to live and work in Hawaii for the full nine months. During the initial five-month period (fall semester), all participants are based at the East-West Center and live on campus. The first five months involves coursework and living and working within a diverse community. In the first semester program content focuses on three areas: 1) understanding regional trends; 2) leadership development; and 3) professional development. In the second semester (January May), participants engage in a range of flexible, customized activities for an additional 4 months. These activities include: working in internships in Hawaii, the continental United States, or Asia Pacific; coursework at the University of Hawaii; developing applied leadership projects; carrying out extended field studies;
