Asia Foundation and Asia New Zealand Foundation Form Alliance to Boost Regional Research and Dialogue
The Asia Foundation and Asia New Zealand Foundation have established a formal partnership to strengthen cooperation in Asia and the Pacific. The collaboration will focus on three key initiatives: conducting joint research projects, facilitating regional policy dialogues, and establishing an annual conference addressing critical challenges facing Asia and the Pacific.
“This partnership represents a significant step forward in our efforts to strengthen New Zealand’s engagement with Asia,” says Suzannah Jessep, chief executive of the Asia New Zealand Foundation. “As the Asia region becomes increasingly complex, demand for the Foundation’s work has grown, particularly in the realm of track 1.5 and track 2 dialogues.”
“We are delighted to deepen our collaboration with the Asia New Zealand Foundation, an important and thoughtful voice on Asia. This partnership reflects our shared interest in finding meaningful new ways for Asia and New Zealand to deepen collaboration,” adds Laurel Miller, President and CEO of The Asia Foundation.
