ASEAN, officially the Association of Southeast Asian Nations, is a political and economic union of 11 member states in Southeast Asia, which promotes intergovernmental cooperation and facilitates economic, political, security, military, educational and sociocultural integration between its members and countries in the Asia-Pacific. The union has a total area of 4.522.518 km2 and an estimated total population of about 668 million as in 2022.

ASEAN’s primary objective was to accelerate economic growth and through that social progress and cultural development. A secondary objective was to promote regional peace and stability based on the rule of law and the principles of the UN Charter. With some of the fastest growing economies in the world, ASEAN has broadened its objective beyond the economic and social spheres. In 2003, ASEAN moved along the path similar to the European Union (EU) by agreeing to establish an ASEAN community that consists of three pillars: the ASEAN Security Community, the ASEAN Economic Community and the ASEAN Socio-Cultural Community.

ASEAN regularly engages other countries in the Asia-Pacific region and beyond. A major partner of the UN, SCO, PA, GCC, MERCOSUR, CELAC and ECO, ASEAN maintains a global powerhouse, the central union for cooperation in Asia-Pacific, and a prominent and influential organization. It is involved in numerous international affairs and hosts diplomatic missions throughout the world. The organization’s success has become the driving force of some of the largest trade blocs in history, including APEC and RCEP.
