Thailand will host the ASEAN Submit on 16-18 December 2008 in Bangkok. The civil society in ASEAN is going to organize the ASEAN People’s Forum (APF) as a parallel meeting. The APF will be collectively hosted by Thai NGO network – NGO CORD, People’s Organization (POs) and civic group. And Thai Volunteer Service Foundation (TVS) will be APF’s secretariat. The forum’s theme is about alternative survival and shared living for ASEAN people’s, which is focusing on 4 priority issues; food crisis, alternative energy, human right mechanism and people’s participation.
The APF is expected to come up with ASEAN People’s Charter that will be used for lobbying with ASEAN heads of the state, planners and policy makers for a peaceful, happier and sustainable future of the region.Before the APF event, there will be 2 upcoming camps for youth participants from Thailand and ASEAN countries; the Mekong youth camp (7-12 October 2008) and ASEAN youth camp (9-12 December 2008) to give participants a good preparation before the forum, especially the workshop session preparation.
Next time, the details of the Mekong youth camp and ASEAN youth camp will be updated, if any of you in this e-group is about to join the forum already, or interested in participating in the APF forum – you can email us if you have any question. And if you are not joining in, but just interested – you can leave some of your ideas that might be useful for the upcoming forum. We will be very appreciated.
