The 12th Asian Conference on the Social Sciences (ACSS2021)
May 24-26, 2021 | Held online from Tokyo, Japan
Held in partnership with the IAFOR Research Centre at the Osaka School of International Public Policy (OSIPP) at Osaka University, this international conference encourages academics and scholars to meet and exchange ideas and views in a forum stimulating respectful dialogue. This event will afford an exceptional opportunity for renewing old acquaintances, making new contacts, networking, and facilitating partnerships across national and disciplinary borders.
Since its founding in 2009, IAFOR has brought people and ideas together in a variety of events and platforms to promote and celebrate interdisciplinary study, and underline its importance. Over the past year we have engaged in many cross-sectoral projects, including those with universities (the University of Barcelona, Hofstra University, UCL, University of Belgrade and Moscow State University), a think tank (the East-West Center), as well as collaborative projects with the United Nations in New York, and here, with the Government of Japan through the Prime Minister’s office.
With the IAFOR Research Centre, we have engaged in a number of interdisciplinary initiatives we believe will have an important impact on domestic and international public policy conversations. It is through conferences like these that we expand our network and partners, and we have no doubt that ACSS2021 will offer a remarkable opportunity for the sharing of research and best practice, and for the meeting of people and ideas.
The 12th Asian Conference on the Social Sciences (ACSS2021) is a multidisciplinary conference held concurrently with The 12th Asian Conference on Arts & Humanities (ACAH2021). Speakers will provide a variety of perspectives from different academic and professional backgrounds.
We look forward to seeing you online!
