The Asia Pacific Leadership Program (APLP) is the center of excellence for leadership education in the Asia Pacific region. The APLP is a graduate certificate program combining the development of regional expertise with the enhancement of individual leadership capacity. Based at the East-West Center in Honolulu, Hawaii, the program is creating a network of dynamic leaders from the United States, Asia and the Pacific who are familiar with the critical issues and cultures of the region and trained to work collaboratively. A fully funded Field Study in Asia and the mainland United States is the capstone experience of the program.
The Asia Pacific Leadership Program seeks outstanding early to mid-career professionals and successful graduate students from across the Asia Pacific region, North America and beyond. Participants will gain a broad regional perspective, become knowledgeable about the critical challenges facing the Asia-Pacific region, and be trained to exercise collaborative leadership and promote cooperation toward the well-being of the countries and peoples of the region. The APLP empowers future leaders with the knowledge, skills, experiences and supportive community needed to successfully navigate personal and regional change in the 21st century.
The program has been established through generous funding support from the Freeman Foundation. It is the signature leadership program of the East-West Center.
