The 10th East Asian Conference on Slavic Eurasian Studies (University of Tokyo 29-30 June, 2019) has announced that it will not hold its 11th meeting next year, but only in 2021. This is in order to encourage members of the Japanese, Korean, and Chinese associations to submit proposals and register panels for next year’s World Congress in Montreal.

ICCEES commends this important strategic decision, which demonstrates exemplary commitment to Central and East European Studies as a global community of scholars. Together with our East Asian partners we are working hard to obtain financial support for a high level of participation in next year’s congress by all our member associations.
