Dear Members of the SACP,
We hope this email finds you all well. Amid the complex travel circumstances this year we have decided to postpone our next meeting until Autumn 2022. Although we would love to continue as planned, we feel it would be best to action this decision sooner rather than later. We also did not feel that a large-scale online event would be particularly desirable in place of our usual face to face meeting.
We look forward to seeing many of you in San Francisco in Autumn 2022! In case you have contacted us, to ask about the submission procedure, we hope we will hear from you again one year from now.
*Those previously accepted to the 2020 annual conference should expect a specific email in the next 24 hours.
We have also recently discussed that it would be logistically difficult to stick to the original schedule of elections for board members, and rather unfortunate for our current board to serve only in a period with no meetings. We therefore feel we should put back our current elections process by two years. This effectively means extending current board member's terms by two years, corresponding to the two-year postponement between events. Unless there are any major objections from our members, we will therefore intend to go ahead with the next set of elections in 2022.
Email inquiries should be directed to sacpweb@PROTECTED.
With all our best wishes for 2021.
The SACP Board

The Society for Asian and Comparative Philosophy was established in 1967 as a non-profit organization aimed at advancing the development of the disciplines of Asian and comparative philosophy in the international academic arena, and bringing together Asian and Western philosophers, as well as other scholars interested in Asian and world philosophy, for a mutually beneficial exchange of ideas. The Society seeks to provide the professional outlet for philosophers doing work in non-Western and comparative areas of philosophy. The group serves as the largest and most well-known professional organization for scholars in the fields of Asian and global philosophy.
