The 30th Asha Conference (US) was held at Georgia Tech on March 26-27, 2022.
The conference ran simultaneously with the Asha for Education India counterpart in Pondicherry. This enabled speakers in India to present to and interact with attendees in the US, and several sessions happened concurrently.
The host chapter, Asha Atlanta, was represented by several student volunteers, while volunteers from Asha Seattle, UIUC, Delaware, Cornell, Silicon Valley, NYC/NJ were also able to attend in person. Volunteers across various US chapters were able to join the conference virtually, including from the Zurich and London chapters.
The conference, other than talks and panel discussions, involved in-depth discussions on Asha’s vision and future, specifically in the context of various issues and inequalities that have been exposed through the attempts at online education over the past 2 years. Binay Pathak, Asha’s president, moderated the discussions and questions from the US conference, while Rajaraman Krishnan moderated the discussions from India. Recordings of the talks are available on YouTube.
