The East-West Center invites graduate students from around the world to submit papers for the _9th Annual International Graduate Student Conference (IGSC) on the Asia Pacific region, taking place in Honolulu, Hawaii USA from February 11-13, 2010.

The Conference will provide an opportunity to share interdisciplinary perspectives formally (through presenting papers and attending other panel presentations) and informally in the warm and encouraging environment of the
East-West Center in Hawaii. Participation in the 2009 conference had broad representation, consisting of graduate students representing 27 nationalities, from more than 60 universities throughout the world.

Abstracts (up to a maximum of 500 words in length) of proposed papers or posters are invited from intending participants at this time. Papers are encouraged from the array of disciplines focusing on the region.

A limited number of travel grants, generally from $100-200 (up to a maximum of $500) and awarded on merit, will be available. Potential participants are encouraged to apply for travel assistance from their home institutions or
other sources available to them due to the limited nature of this provision.
