About AFPW

ASEAN for the Peoples Week 2026 builds on a strong foundation shaped by ASEAN’s formal processes, the adoption of the ASEAN Community Vision 2045, and the momentum generated by the ASEAN for the Peoples Conference (AFPC) organized by FPCI in 2025.

By convening policymakers, civil society leaders, business actors, youth representatives, academics, media, and regional partners in a shared space, the platform seeks to translate regional commitments into practical collaboration. It aims to strengthen cross-sector partnerships, generate policy-relevant insights, and promote initiatives that produce tangible outcomes for communities across Southeast Asia.

Program Overview

ASEAN for the Peoples Week 2026 will be held in Cebu, the Philippines, from 5–8 May 2026, alongside the 48th ASEAN Summit. The program combines roundtable strategic dialogue with accessible public engagement formats.
