The 10th Engaging With Vietnam conference will be held in Ho Chi Minh City and Phan Thiet this December 15-21. September 30 is the deadline for submitting proposals to participate, so there is still time to submit and we are therefore sending this message as a reminder.
We would encourage anyone interested in participating/attending to visit the Engaging With Vietnam website for detailed information about the 10th conference:

As is always the case, this year’s conference is shaping up to be an exciting one, and it will have its share of surprises. The current list of invited speakers/discussants should give some sense of that:
