Hosted by the Center on Disability Studies (CDS), College of Education, University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa since 1988, Pac Rim has evolved into an international conference that has welcomed thousands of presenters and attendees from across Hawaiʻi, the nation, and the world. In 2020, within the context of a global pandemic and shifting times, we elected to take a breather, reflect on our experiences and feedback from past conferences, hit the refresh button, and launch a fully virtual Pac Rim. Join us!
Look out for the “Pac Rim 2021: Welcome! 🌞” email – this contains a “Know Before You Go” document including the Zoom passwords for live sessions (Important!).
Join our Virtual Community (Mighty Networks): Find presenter slides/resources in the different presentation Spaces and connect with others.
Update Your Zoom Account: Use a desktop or laptop for Zoom sessions. Using a mobile device will result in limited Zoom features.
