The Korea Matters for America project, part of the East-West Center’s Asia Matters for America initiative, comprises a publication and website that provide a one-stop, on-going source of information, data, news and analysis on United States-Korea relations. The website in particular will be a regular place to post new information, reports and events in the US-Korea alliance and bilateral relationship. The project has user-friendly analysis and visual graphics of both quantitative and qualitative data in order to be useful to students, media, businesspersons, policy-makers and political leaders.  The initiative highlights the fact that despite global and Asia Pacific regional changes, the bilateral relationship and alliance remain critically important to both countries national interests.
