ASEAN Youth Organization recognizes the youth as catalysts for change and development and therefore, we are pleased to introduce to you all – ASEAN YOUTH CONFERENCE, 2023 (AYC). AYC is the annual signature event of the ASEAN Youth Organization that gathers youth across the ASEAN and ASEAN’s partner countries. Since the establishment of the program in 2018, AYC has directly impacted 1,000+ Youth Leaders and has further influenced more than 30,000 ASEAN Youth as a part of our umbrella mission to create sustainable and actionable change.


This year AYC will gather around 150 ASEAN and International young leaders and change-makers who are keen to share their thoughts about various persisting challenges and opportunities in our society and further, help develop and implement international projects. ASEAN Youth Conference will be offline for 3 consecutive days in November 2023. This conference will be the youth’s contribution to implementing the agenda for peace, stability, solidarity, unity, prosperity, and sustainability in ASEAN in accordance with Indonesia’s chairmanship of ASEAN, “ASEAN Matters: Epicentrum of Growth.”


AYC operates in 3 pillars which stimulate the 3 ASEAN pillars – the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC), the ASEAN Political-Security Pillar (APSC), and the ASEAN Socio-Cultural Pillar (ASCC). AYC will also involve the preparation of a youth declaration that will be submitted to the ASEAN Secretariat. Delegates from each pillar would have an opportunity to directly make their voices heard through this declaration in reference to their chosen ASEAN pillar.
