The Only Database of Black Experts on Asia

Black Asia Experts

By promoting and supporting the work of Asia Experts who identify as Black or African-American, we offer a concrete way to address explicit and implicit racial bias in public and professional perceptions of Asia expertise.

Our platform offers a comprehensive, free database of Black and African-American experts specializing in Asia and the broader Indo-Pacific region. Designed for media professionals, event organizers, and recruiters, this resource provides direct access to contact information for a wide range of experts.

The database is continually updated with profiles of new experts who join the NABEA community, ensuring a rich and ever-evolving roster of professionals. With each visit, you'll discover an expanded array of names and areas of expertise.
