2020 HPAIR ASIA CONFERENCE
TAIPEI, TAIWAN
3/29 HPAIR COVID-19 UPDATE
Dear HPAIR Community,
Speakers, delegates, and sponsors: Thank you for your continued patience and support for HPAIR. Our team has been monitoring the situation regarding the spread of COVID-19 these past few weeks. It is with a heavy heart that our team must announce the cancellation of the 2020 Asia Conference in Taipei, Taiwan, in August 2020. This was a difficult decision, but ultimately the only decision that would honor the spirit of HPAIR as supporting young professionals and students. Right now, the most important way we can support you as an organization is to stress the importance of preventing the spread of the coronavirus.
Because the number one factor in our decision was the health of our potential speakers and delegates, as well as the impact of their travel on the health of local communities, we would like to remind you to abide by the appropriate restrictive measures for your area. As young leaders of the world, not only do we have the pivotal role of setting the precedent of following rules such as social distancing, but we also possess the power to educate our networks about the impact of the coronavirus. We are certain that many of you will step up during this time as caring neighbors, loving caretakers, and bold leaders and organizers. For your help, we thank you in advance.
As our team continues to monitor the situation, we will be in touch via social media, our website, and email with any updates regarding the next scheduled HPAIR conference. Until then, we wish you and your loved ones safety and health in this difficult time.
Best,
The HPAIR Team
