Abstract	Global exigency towards more inclusive practices in higher education institutions (HEIs) has markedly accelerated institutional reforms. This qualitative research aims to explore the idea of co-creating curriculum from the cultural lens of Asian HEIs. A total of twenty (n = 12 females and n = 8 males) undergraduate students volunteered to actively co-create curriculum with a group of lecturers. Their experiences and views towards this approach were gathered from several focus group interviews. The interview data were analysed using hybrid thematic analysis. Findings revealed three overarching themes: (1) existence of socio-cognitive conflicts, (2) pseudo-involvement and (3) positive outlook. These findings indicate complex interactions between Asian students' cultural orientation, their belief systems as well as their willingness to be actively involved in co-creating curriculum. Following this, a comprehensive understanding of how culture adapts to the idea and practices of co-creating curriculum is presented. This research subsequently offers several practical implications for Asian HEIs to implement co-creating curriculum more effectively. By highlighting the importance of understanding students' culture, this research concludes that co-creating curriculum is a promising approach for Asian HEIs to develop a more inclusive higher education curriculum.
