The 38th Annual Conference on South Asia will be held on October 22 – 25, 2009 at the Madison Concourse Hotel, 1 West Dayton St., Madison, WI 53703. The Conference is sponsored by the Center for South Asia at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

The Annual Conference on South Asia attracts over 500 scholars and other interested parties annually, who travel from a dozen countries around the world and much of the United States including Hawaii and Alaska. The conference features 75 or more academic panels and roundtables, as well as association meetings and special events ranging from performances to film screenings.

Another important component of the Conference is our exhibit space. University presses, independent publishers and non-profit organizations provide the conference participants with high quality resources, and the best publications on South Asian topics. The exhibit space is also a great opportunity to meet with other scholars and to connect with the booksellers.

The deadline for proposal submissions has passed. Registration as a non-presenting participant at the Conference is open to the general public.
