Association for Asian Studies (AAS) Annual Conference

I attended the Association for Asian Studies (AAS) Annual Conference in Vancouver, Canada. This was a remarkable experience to immerse myself in Asian studies and be surrounded by scholars in the field.

The AAS is the world’s largest academic gathering dedicated to the study of Asia. It brought together students, scholars, educators, and professionals from across the globe to share research and build collaboration in the field of Asian Studies.

With more than 3,900 attendees, the conference took place at the Vancouver Convention Center and nearly by hotels. The conference was packed full of exciting events from lectures to book sale exhibit hall, film shows, posters, and educational sessions.
