In keeping with CAERDA's mission of promoting excellence in education for Chinese and Chinese American students and researchers, for the next few years, we will focus our efforts on several fronts:

A. Outreach. Increasing our presence in China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and the U.S. by systematically reaching out to other associations.
B. Service. Expanding our services to our members by incorporating informational workshops at our conferences and by developing an academic recognition program for our members.
C. Quality. Improving the quality of our conference and publication through systematic outreach to relevant organizations, increasing the pool of keynote speakers, and publish a post-conference edited book on the conference theme.

To address these issues and carrying out the related activities, we need support from not only our members, but also other individuals and organizations. In addition to human resources, we also need financial support. There are many ways that you can help as an individual or an organization. You can join CAERDA as a member, make donations, or volunteer your time to work with us on these issues. Please let me know which issue(s) you would be interested in working on and the best way to contact you.

Sincere regards,

Chuang Wang, Ph.D.
President 2008-2009
