ASN connects hundreds of members in more than fifty countries, including scholars, doctoral students, policy analysts, and NGO practitioners. The organizations primary activities include an Annual World Convention hosted in coordination with Columbia Universitys Harriman Institute in New York, as well as regular European conferences. The annual convention typically features over 150 panels, and its participants constitute the most international group of scholars of any North American conventions and conferences in this field.
