To whom studied on food and worked with food,

We are glad to tell you the 12th Asian Food Study Conference is going to be held on this weekend. For the past three years, we have witnessed the power of this 'wave of death' that has swept through societies, with a range of effects continuing – not just as a medical phenomenon, but also as a political and social one. In the post-COVID-19 era, to live with the virus is probably the reality. But how to live with it in a responsible way counts to every country, every community and every individual, especially in the field of food. It’s about survival, living and lasting cultures and civilizations.

This year for the conference, we insisted to have onsite plus online, with service of whole interpretations (English, Mandarin and Japanese). There are six keynote speakers who will address the tone in perspectives of history, sociology, economy, policies, ethics and activities. There are seven panel sessions within thirty-nine selected speakers to make their presentations. All issues in the discussion are focused on change, dilemmas, and sustainability. It also draws our attention that there has been a number of brilliant young scholars whom are sophisticated and sharp, passionate on food studies. In the coming days of pleasant and inspiration, you are expected to join us!
