The ASEAN People's Forum is a People-to People platform to be held prior to the 14th ASEAN Summit in Bangkok. Civil society organizations and social movements from all ASEAN countries are invited to join the forum to discuss issues confronting peoples in the region and to articulate and strategize around people's aspirations for ASEAN and the ASEAN people.
The APF will have plenary sessions on people-centered alternatives, the food and energy crisis in the region, and people's participation in ASEAN. There will be independently-organized parallel workshops on different issues such as labour rights, disaster risks reduction, free trade agreements, youth, Gross National Happiness, migration, human rights, and many others.
A Call for workshop proposals will be posted shortly.
The APF is jointly organized by The Thai Working Group on APF and Regional Organizing Committee for the ASEAN Civil Society Conference IV (ACSC4).
