Back Asia-Europe Meeting's 20th anniversary

ASEM 1996-2016: 20 years of dialogue and cooperation

The first ASEM Summit, held in 1996, marked the start of a process that has engaged both regions in dialogue and cooperation on political, economic and socio-cultural issues. The origins of the ASEM process lay in the recognition of the importance of a strong relationship between Asia and Europe.

For two decades ASEM has been an important forum for dialogue and cooperation. ASEM celebrates its 20th anniversary on 15-16 July 2016 at the 11th ASEM Summit (ASEM11) in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia.
