ABMP is a unit of the York Centre for Asian Research (YCAR), a community of York University researchers who are committed to analyzing the changing historical and contemporary dynamics of societies in Asia. In 2019 ABMP and YCAR founded the Canada-China Initiatives Fund (recently renamed the China Insights Fund), to support scholarly exchanges and research on modern (i.e., post 1911) and contemporary China, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan and their global outreach, as well as Canada-China linkages and the experiences of the Chinese-Canadian community.
