Alas, the COVID-19 situation has compelled us to revise our plans for our conference in Hokkaido. We have decided to drastically reduce the conference in size, limit it to residents of Japan, and hold it in an alternative location. This symposium is by invitation only. If you have any questions, please email us at enquiries@sociohex.com
We would like to encourage international scholars to consider submitting to our next conference in Okinawa, 2021 (details here).
