grant Background
About the Funding Agency
The Association of Southeast Asian Nations, or ASEAN, was established on 8 August 1967 in Bangkok, Thailand, with the signing of the ASEAN Declaration (Bangkok Declaration) by the Founding Fathers of ASEAN, namely Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore and Thailand. The Road Map for the ASEAN Community sets out commitments which member States must strive to achieve by 2015. The ASEAN Secretariat seeks to facilitate the implementation of these commitments.
Our goal is to enhance regional peace, stability and security, facilitate economic integration, and improve wellbeing and livelihoods for the peoples of ASEAN by building the ASEAN Community around three pillars: political-security community, economic community, socio-cultural community.
