WELCOME<\/strong><\/p>\n

The South Asia Center in the Henry M. Jackson School of International Studies at the University of Washington welcomes you to the annual South Asia Conference of the Pacific Northwest (SACPAN). Founded in 1966 by an interdisciplinary group of colleagues from UW and the University of British Columbia, SACPAN is today a collaborative venture sponsored by South Asia specialists at UW, UBC, the University of Oregon, and other institutions in the region. One of the oldest centers of South Asian migration in North America, the Pacific Northwest is an ideal location for a public conference that promotes a richer understanding of South Asia in global, transnational, cross-border, and transregional contexts.<\/p>\n

Stretching across the humanities, social sciences, applied sciences, medical sciences, and professional fields, the\u00a0South\u00a0Asia\u00a0Center is an important intellectual and pedagogical hub for the study of\u00a0South\u00a0Asia. A National Resource Center funded by the Title VI program of the United States Department of Education, our mission is to enhance the study of\u00a0South Asia\u00a0(Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka) on campus, in the\u00a0community, across the Pacific Northwest, and throughout the United States. The South Asia Center promotes knowledge about South Asia through innovative research, curricular development, graduate student training, and outreach to educational, civic, and business institutions and the general public.<\/p>\n

Welcome to Seattle!<\/p>\n

Sincerely,
\nSACPAN Planning Committee<\/p>\n

Sunila Kale, Director, South Asia Center and Associate Professor, International Studies
\nPurnima Dhavan, Associate Professor, History
\nRadhika Govindrajan, Assistant Professor, Anthropology
\nSamuel Ostroff, Managing Director, South Asia Center
\nLily Shapiro, Doctoral Candidate, Anthropology<\/p>\n

The conference program is designed in the hopes that all participants will be able to attend all panels to foster intellectual dialogue, exchange, and collegiality.<\/em><\/p>\n

\n

Transportation<\/h3>\n

Campus is accessible for cyclists, those taking public transportation, and for drivers. For general transportation information visit the transportation services website<\/a>. Events will be held in the HUB<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n

Format<\/h3>\n

In keeping with recent SACPAN tradition, we will follow a \u201c10\/10\u201d format: ten minutes for presentation and ten minutes for questions and discussion. This gives each presenter a chance to advance a core idea, receive an equal amount of time for feedback, and maximize participation. It also allows us to ensure that each individual paper gets feedback. Given the format, we particularly welcome proposals on work in progress and from early career graduate students that would benefit from substantive feedback.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
