The first volume in the series Athena Transactions in Social Sciences and Humanities (ATSSH) has been published. Volume 1 contains the proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Arts, Design and Contemporary Education (ICADCE 2022). Jointly organized by five institutions from China, Russia and Belarus, the aim of ICADCE 2022 was to provide a common platform for educators, artists, scholars and students with different cultural backgrounds to present and discuss research, developments and innovations in the fields of Art and Art Education. Athena is pleased to announce that three more volumes are expected to be published in ATSSH in the coming weeks, while discussions on the appointment of a Series Editor are currently still ongoing. ATSSH offers conference organizers a fast, versatile and cost-effective process for publishing the proceedings of academic conferences and workshops in the broad fields of Social Sciences and Humanities.
