Program Involvement
Mark Seah works with The Program on Democracy and the Informed Public.
Mark first joined the Ash Center in 2019 as a Program Coordinator and later stepped into the Program Administrator role that supports the Rajawali Foundation Institute for Asia before joining the Unseen Legacies of Vietnam War Project (ULVW) & the Global Vietnam Wars Studies Initiative (GVWSI) team as a Program Manager.
The ULVW is the first systematic review of documents from multiple archives and other sources in the U.S. and Vietnam, designed to facilitate the location and identification of Vietnamese war dead. This information is provided to the U.S. Department of Defense along with personal ephemera and verifying documentation that can provide closure and healing to Vietnamese families. The Global Vietnam Wars Studies Initiative is racing to rescue and document the untold histories and hidden memories from all sides of the war while advancing groundbreaking scholarship about the conflict and its domestic and global ramifications.
