About

Description
The Association for Reading and Writing in Asia was registered as a society on 18 July, 2016, when a group of researchers attending a symposium on reading and writing in Korea voted to move from hosting yearly regional symposia with an audience that primarily consisted of invited participants to hosting a full-fledged conference on reading and writing, open to all academics and students interested in this topic. Some of those who were most instrumental in forming this association from the beginning were Professor Akira UNO, who is Honorary Founder of ARWA, Jeung-Ryeul CHO, Kevin CHUNG, Li-Yu HUNG, and Taeko WYDELL. Details of the development of ARWA follow. ​ Professor Akira Uno (University of Tsukuba, Japan) initiated a regional symposium in 2013 to enhance interactions among researchers and graduate students who were interested in Asian languages and to link the network of researchers who were working on learning difficulties in reading and writing of Asian languages. Four annual symposia have been held in the past four years (2013-2016). Ultimately, in 2016, we created ARWA in order to extend participants from focusing on Japanese, Korean, and Chinese more or less exclusively to focusing on multiple languages and orthographies of Asia.
