The 19th ACLA International Symposium, hosted in Nanjing, China, has been widely recognized across regional media and partner institutions as a leading platform for academic exchange and cultural collaboration in Asia.
Bringing together universities and organizations from multiple countries, the program integrated symposium sessions, the Asian Cultural Design Contest, and field-based activities creating a comprehensive environment that connects research, education, and practice. This model enabled participants to engage not only in scholarly dialogue but also in direct cultural and heritage experiences within the context of Asian design.
