The 49th annual East Coast Asian American Student Union (ECAASU) Conference will be hosted&mdash;for the first time in its history&mdash;in Atlanta, Georgia from February 26-28, 2027 at Emory University. After 49 years of uninterrupted growth, ECAASU remains the oldest Asian American student conference in the country. Rooted in its organizational goals to educate, inspire, and empower Asian/American (A/A) students, the annual conference fosters a space for students to develop their passions for advocacy. ECAASU also helps them build networks of solidarity with other students and community-based organizations all across the East Coast. Over this weekend, attendees across the nation will explore new ideas through interactive workshops, connect with guest speakers and student leaders, and develop the skills to drive meaningful change in their communities. In bringing this gathering to Atlanta with the theme &ldquo;ROOTED,&rdquo; ECAASU plants itself in a place with a deep history of its own. Through this year&rsquo;s conference, we invite attendees to honor what has been planted before us, tend to what is growing now, and nurture communities strong enough to outlast us. To be rooted is not to stand still. We hope you will draw strength with us in Atlanta so we may grow toward an abundant future.
