The biennial Asian Studies Association of Australia (ASAA) conference is the largest gathering of experts working on Asia in the southern hemisphere.
ASAA 2018 Conference
The ASAA will hold its 22nd biennial conference from 3–5 July 2018 at the University of Sydney. It will be co-organised by the Sydney Southeast Asia Centre, the China Studies Centre and the School of Languages and Culture.
Proposal submissions for the conference will open on 1 July 2017 and close on 1 November 2017. While proposals for individual papers are welcome, applicants are strongly encouraged to collaborate with peers to propose a workshop, roundtable, individual panel or stream of panels that converge on a particular theme. Multi-country or multi-disciplinary representation, as well as gender balance and the inclusion of a combination of junior and senior scholars, is strongly encouraged in all proposals.
The conference will also include a postgraduate workshop on 2 July 2018. Applications for the workshop will close on 30 March. The workshop is open to all postgraduate members of the ASAA. Postgraduates wishing to attend the workshop are strongly encouraged to present at the conference as well.
