ASEF Higher Education Programme (AHEP) Advisory Committee (AC)

 Estalished in 2006, an Advisory Committee occupies a central place in the structure of the ASEF Higher Education Programme (AHEP). It plays the dual role as an observatory and guiding body.

As an observatory, the Comittee monitors and reflects on the trends and developments in the higher education sector in Asia and Europe as well as existing co-operation between the two regions to:

• ensure an appropriate flow of information among stakeholders;

• identify relevant areas for enhanced Asia-Europe co-operation; and

• propose new initiatives.

As a guiding body, the Comittee provides strategic recommendations for the further development of the Programme, as well as possible means to enhance effectiveness of existing projects. 

The Committee meets annually to evaluate and review higher education-related initiatives undertaken by ASEF and its partners.

The Advisory Committee consists of:

• Representatives of relevant higher education organisations and networks in Asia and Europe.

• Academics and practitioners that have a proven interest and solid experience in bilateral higher education co-operation.
