Greeting

Dear Colleagues, 

On behalf of the Asian Society for AdaptedPhysical Education and Exercise (ASAPE), it’s my great pleasure and honor to welcome you to the International Symposium of ASAPE 2024. This will be our 18th biannual international symposium since its inception in 1989.

Jointly organized by ASAPE and the Japanese Society for Adapted Physical Education and Exercise (JASAPE), this biannual international symposium is being held in the beautiful city of Sapporo, Hokkaido, Japan from August 2-4, 2024. Under the leadership of the symposium chair, Prof. Tomoyasu YASUI, the organizing committee has developed an exciting program that covers a wide range of activities. It is also exciting to see this symposium switching back to the face-to-face mode after the COVID-19 pandemic.

This biannual symposium continues to provide an effective platform for adapted physical activity researchers and practitioners to share and network. If you are not an ASAPE member yet, please consider joining us as an ASAPE member to enjoy a variety of benefits such as registration fee concession in the coming symposium.

Again, a warm welcome to ASAPE 2024. Iappreciate your participation and hope you will find this symposium rewarding.

Sincerely,

Chunxiao Li, PhD

President, Asian Society for Adapted Physical Education and Exercise
