World Congress of Taiwan Studies
This looks pretty exciting: it’s the 1st World Congress of Taiwan Studies, which is being held April 26 to 28 at Academia Sinica. There is an impressive list of speakers and discussants in 26 sessions at which 107 papers will be presented. Around 180 local and international scholars who are leading experts in Taiwan Studies have been invited to attend, so it might be a great place to meet and network with leaders in your fields.
All the details can be found on the website:

Special thanks to Scott Simon, the chair of the Taiwan Studies program at the University of Ottawa, for passing this on. (Yes, sometimes I have to get news from across the planet to tell me what’s going on just down the street!)
