Following its first phase of funding, WREAC continues to build national capacity in Language-Based Area Studies in the second phase by developing its PGR/ECR language and training provision in Chinese and Japanese Studies, extending its partnerships with other academic institutions within and beyond the UK and with users and stakeholders, and deploying its expanding networks of knowledge exchange to communicate and disseminate its research and training programmes in order to enhance the impacts of its research. There are three strands in its second phase of work: (1) Identities and Cultures in East Asia: focuses on (a) the cultural context of film and the media in Japan, China, Taiwan and Korea through collaboration with the Centre for World Cinemas (Leeds) and the White Rose Mixed Cinema Network (MCN) and engagement with film, art organisations and international festivals, and the development of networks embracing Australia, Denmark, Japan, China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Korea and New Zealand; (b) 'Performing China on the Global Stage' which examines creative processes and the social roles of theatre in China through the development of a global practice-led network in Sinology and Cultural and Performance Studies (in collaboration with the Leeds School for Performance and Cultural Industries, WUN partner universities, professional theatres, and 40 other partners worldwide). The opportunities to widen scholarly and practitioner access to Chinese theatre have been enhanced by two recent Leeds-led projects; the European Cultural Co-operation Project (2008-10) which focused on Chinese opera, covering higher education, professional practice and cultural industries, and the Cao Yu centenary exhibition, film production and lecture programme which celebrated the work of the most distinguished Chinese playwright of the twentieth century.(2) Cross-cultural Encounters and Globalisation: builds on research and training in the fields of internationalisation, Sino-Japanese relations and transformations within East Asia, and the impacts of these processes on the UK and the EU. There are three projects: (a) to use Chinese and Japanese language in accessing data and to place interns in WREAC and in Chinese and Japanese-speaking environments, in order to develop a database of Chinese and Japanese companies investing in the UK, the historical and cultural dimensions of East Asian internationalisation, and the changing trajectories of East Asian company behaviour in the UK and the EU; (b) to use internships, international networks and links with Japanese and British public bodies, in examining community well-being and connectedness in Japan's shrinking regions with comparison of the effects of depopulation on such countries as Korea and the UK; (c) to build on initiatives bringing together scholars and PGRs in Sino-Japanese Studies through a series of themed conferences and workshops focusing on the history and memory of World War Two in the Asia Pacific, as well as Anglo-Japanese and Asia-Japanese reconciliation, and engaging NGOs with interests in war and reconciliation. (3) Networks in Chinese and Japanese Language: (a) develops an international network of Supervisors in Teaching Chinese as a Second Language to exchange experience of supervision, discuss, develop and coordinate best practice in learning and teaching, and promote the development of Chinese linguistics; (b) establish a tandem Japanese network where native/non-native speaker-pairs work together to improve each other's language skills, communicate the purposes of their work in engaging with the academic community of their target language area, and realise opportunities for career development; (c) examine how recent cultural changes in Japan and China have altered negotiation expectations and practices among Japanese and Chinese negotiators and how this can inform Western business and public policy-making practitioners working in East Asia.

在第一阶段的资助之后，WREAC将在第二阶段继续建设基于语言的区域研究的国家能力，通过发展其PGR/ECR语言和汉语和日语研究培训，扩大与英国国内外其他学术机构以及用户和利益相关者的伙伴关系。并部署其不断扩大的知识交流网络来沟通和传播其研究和培训项目，以便增强其研究的影响。第二阶段的工作有三个方面：(1)东亚的身份和文化：重点关注(a)日本、中国、台湾和韩国的电影和媒体的文化背景，通过与世界电影中心（利兹）和白玫瑰混合电影网络（MCN）的合作，与电影、艺术组织和国际电影节的合作，以及与澳大利亚、丹麦、日本、中国、香港、台湾、韩国和新西兰的网络发展；(b)“在全球舞台上表演中国”，通过发展一个以全球实践为主导的汉学和文化与表演研究网络，研究中国戏剧的创作过程和社会角色（与利兹表演与文化产业学院、世界联合国合作大学、专业剧院和全球40个其他合作伙伴合作）。最近利兹大学领导的两个项目增加了学者和从业者接触中国戏剧的机会；欧洲文化合作项目（2008- 2010），重点关注中国戏剧，涵盖高等教育、专业实践和文化产业；曹禺百周年展览、电影制作和讲座项目，纪念这位20世纪最杰出的中国剧作家的作品。(2)跨文化接触和全球化：建立在国际化、中日关系和东亚内部转型以及这些过程对英国和欧盟的影响等领域的研究和培训基础上。有三个项目：(a)使用中文和日语访问数据，并在WREAC以及中文和日语环境中安排实习生，以建立一个中国和日本公司在英国投资的数据库，东亚国际化的历史和文化维度，以及东亚公司在英国和欧盟的行为变化轨迹；(b)利用实习机会、国际网络和与日本和英国公共机构的联系，研究日本萎缩地区的社区福祉和连通性，并比较人口减少对韩国和英国等国家的影响；(c)通过举办一系列以亚太地区第二次世界大战的历史和记忆、英日和解和亚日和解为主题的会议和研讨会，以及与对战争与和解感兴趣的非政府组织合作，进一步推动中日研究领域的学者和专家学者的合作。(3)中日语言网络：(a)建立国际汉语作为第二语言教学导师网络，交流监督经验，讨论、发展和协调学习和教学的最佳实践，促进汉语语言学的发展；(b)建立日语交流网络，让以日语为母语/非日语为母语的日语对口生共同努力，提高彼此的语言技能，与目标语言地区的学术团体交流工作目的，并实现职业发展机会；(c)研究日本和中国最近的文化变化如何改变了日本和中国谈判者的谈判期望和实践，以及这如何为在东亚工作的西方商业和公共政策制定从业者提供信息。
