Excellent coverage of the ICASD 2026 organizing team. Attended ICGSD 2024 in Thailand — quality of peer-reviewed sessions was consistently outstanding. Looking forward to KL in May.

Could someone confirm whether virtual attendance includes access to all plenary sessions and proceedings? Our team in Riyadh may not be able to travel.

This is my first ICASD. The Scopus indexing pathway is a major attraction for early-career researchers like myself. Submitted my abstract yesterday!
