The Women in Asia (WIA) Conference continues a tradition started by the Asian Studies Association of Australia (ASAA) Womens Caucus (now Womens Forum) in 1981.
This will be the first time this Conference has been held on the west coast, and it follows the UWA hosting of the Asian Studies Association of Australia Conference in 2014.
The 2017 Women in Asia Conference provides an opportunity to showcase the work of scholars who research women and gender relations in Asia. WIA conferences particularly attract scholars and practitioners from Asia, as well as local and domestic participants from the community sector, academia and government.
