What is the Women's Forum ?

The Women’s Forum of the ASAA includes people interested in promoting scholarship on women in Asia or supporting women working within Asian Studies.

 

The Women’s Forum

  • convenes the "Women in Asia" conference series;
  • coordinates a free email discussion list of news items to subscribers; and
  • holds a biennial meeting held during the ASAA conferences.
  • ASAA Women’s Forum Email Discussion List

    The Women’s Forum Email Discussion List is a moderated listserv open to anyone interested in promoting scholarship on women in Asia or supporting women working within Asian Studies. Anyone can subscribe to the list and contribute news items, comments, requests for information, book reviews, thesis summaries, advertisements, forthcoming conferences, or jobs or activities and seminar notices. Your contributions will then be forwarded to the entire network. The list is moderated by Lenore Lyons, Research Professor in Asian Studies, at the University of Western Australia.
