  As the largest continent of the world, Asia offers great opportunities for researchers with its vast grasslands, diverse and unique environmental conditions, rich biodiversity, and varied ecological and evolutionary processes, some of which are not observed elsewhere. Simultaneously, it poses great challenges for nature conservation and sustainable livelihoods, due to climatic and land-use changes. The very first Asian Grassland Conference aims to bring researchers together and learn about the latest research on Asian grasslands. It will be an online event taking place from 19 to 21 April 2022. It is free of charge, owing to the generous support of the International Association for Vegetation Science (IAVS), the mother organization of EDGG, and Inner Mongolian University. The registration is now open and the abstract submission deadline is 6th March 2022. Please find detailed information on the conference website: https://edgg.org /AGC We invite researchers and conservationists from any discipline, who are interested in Asian grasslands, to join us! AGC will provide a forum for participants to learn about advances in the field, get inspired, share knowledge, develop networks and enjoy the event. Regular talk sessions and speed talk sessions (in place of the poster session) will cover all aspects of grassland research and conservation. Three distinguished scientists will give keynote talks: Prof. Norbert Hölzel, from the University of Münster, will show us the impact of Post-Soviet land-use change on Central Asian steppe ecosystems. Prof. Shuli Niu, from the Institute of Geography and Natural Resources of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, will focus on the response of alpine grassland to global change. Prof. Jiang Zhigang, from the Institute of Zoology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, will present the status and conservation of the wild ungulates of grasslands in China. In addition to the oral presentations, there will be several workshops and informal meeting opportunities. At the end of the daily sessions, participants will be invited to join a happy hour, where they can interact with other participants and talk. Newcomers interested in learning more about EDGG can join an Introduction to EDGG and Grassplot workshop. Another interactive event is Meet the Editors, where participants can ask questions about all stages of publishing a scientific article, such as submission, evaluation criteria, language issues, or how to reply to reviewers. We will have several editors from high-quality journals, including Restoration Ecology, Applied Vegetation Science, Biological Conservation, Vegetation Classification and Survey, Frontiers of Ecology and Evolution, Hacquetia and Frontiers in Environmental Science, on the virtual podium. Another important workshop for scientists dealing with vegetation classification will be the Workshop on the vegetation typologies in Asia and their crosswalks to/overlaps with phytosociological syntaxa. This workshop aims to better understand vegetation typologies of Asia from a global point of view. Specifically, we would like to harmonize Asian typologies with that of GrassPlot, an EDGG-associated database of multi-scale vegetation-plot data of Palaearctic grasslands and other open habitats (https://edgg.org/databases/GrassPlot). A special event will be dedicated to discussing the proposal to establish one (or two or three) Regional Section(s) of IAVS for Asia. Led by IAVS, the Initial Workshop on the foundation of IAVS Regional Section(s) in Asia aims to bring together vegetation ecologists dealing with any vegetation type, from tropical to boreal forests, via savannas, steppes, deserts, tundra and wetlands to semi-natural and natural habitats, in any part of Asia, to discuss options of international collaboration. It will take place on IAVS’ Zoom platform on Friday 22 April 2022 from 7:00-8:30 UTC (see https://bit.ly/3Gi3dmx for the time at your time zone). Interested grassland researchers can register through the conference registration platform. Another option is to register free of charge at https://forms.gle/zJF8sFtR8gcysvW96. The conference will reward young scientists for an excellent presentation of their research. The Young Investigator Competition will take place in both the oral and poster categories. Applications will be collected at registration. In addition, we encourage all conference participants to participate in the Photo Competition on the beauty and diversity of grasslands in Asia. We are planning to organize three Special Features (SFs) in association with the conference, to allow participants to make their research more visible. Depending on the subject and quality of their presentation, participants will be able to choose from three SFs in international, peer-reviewed journals: Biodiversity and Conservation (considered) (https://www.springer.com/journal/10531) Chair of Guest Editors: Didem Ambarlı (didem.ambarli@gmail.com) Abstract submission until 01 May 2022 to the Chair of Guest Editors Topics: Any high-impact papers dealing with biodiversity and conservation of grasslands in Asia Further details: https://edgg.org/publ/ongoingsfeatures Vegetation Classification and Survey (https://vcs.pensoft.net/) Chair of Guest Editors: Jürgen Dengler (dr.juergen.dengler@gmail.com) Abstract submission until 30 April 2022 to the Chair of Guest Editors Topics: Papers dealing with classification of Asian grasslands Further Details: https://vegsciblog.org/2021/11/13/new-special-collection-on-grasslands-of-asia-launched-by-vcs/ Hacquetia (https://ojs.zrc-sazu.si/hacquetia) Chair of Guest Editors: Orsolya Valkó (valkoorsi@gmail.com) Abstract submission deadline 28 February 2022 to the Chair of Guest Editors Topics: Papers dealing with Fauna, flora, vegetation and conservation of Asian grasslands Further Details: see Palaearctic Grasslands, vol. 51 Please visit the conference website https://edgg.org/AGC for further information.
