Format
The conference will be hosted by the Institute of Japanese Studies at Ghent University and will take place in hybrid format, allowing participation both face-to-face (f2f) in Ghent and remotely over Zoom.
At a hybrid conference, panels take place at the conference venue with face-to-face (f2f) participants, while simultaneously having centrally-organised Zoom meetings for each panel, hosted by conference volunteers and overseen by conference organisers (with the Zoom links visible to logged-in, paid-up delegates from the panel page). F2F presentations and f2f questions/discussion are captured by an external webcam and cam/lapel mic, while online presentations/questions can be heard in the room across a set of external speakers and seen on the screen. Online delegates will be able to both present and participate in discussions.
