The 10th China-Japan-Korea Joint Conference on Geography ＆ the 1st Asian Conference on Geography was held in East China Normal University in Shanghai, China from October 9-12, 2015. The theme of the conference was “Urbanizing Asia： Diversity versus Globaliza- tion”. It attracted 318 geographic professionals from 8 Asian countries, including China, Japan, Korea, India, Mongolia, Pakistan, Nepal, and Laos, as well as western countries such as the United States, Sweden, and the United Kingdom.
