Morrison, President and George R. Ariyoshi, Chair, EWC Board of Governors The East-West Center’s multinational community of staff, students, alumni, and friends was personally touched by the loss of colleagues and loved ones in the terrorist attacks on New York and Washington of September 11. We dedicate our year’s work and this report to the victims of those attacks, and to all innocent victims of terrorism worldwide. The September 11 attacks contradicted the basic beliefs underlying the creation of the East-West Center – that understanding, relations, and a sense of community can be built through focused, cooperative study, discussion and research on issues of common concern. The East-West Center accepts that there are legitimate differences of perspectives and interests on many such issues. It acknowledges that not all such differences can be bridged, even among people of sincerity and goodwill. But as recognized in the United Nations conventions on international terrorism and other international covenants, there can be no possible justification for criminal acts of terrorism directed against innocent persons. We were very grateful to the many East-West Center alumni, friends, and partner organizations from all over Asia and the Pacific who sent messages of sympathy to and solidarity with the American people. These messages, coming from China, India, Pakistan, Indonesia, the South Pacific, and elsewhere, buoyed our spirit and demonstrated that our extended networks do form an emerging regional community with a shared sense of the value of humanity, tolerance, and the peaceful resolution of issues.
