LuceSEA Recording Now Available: ASEAN Interrelationship: Memberships, Conflict Managements, and Human Right Protection

The recording of our LuceSEA Webinar – “ASEAN Interrelationship: Memberships, Conflict Managements, and Human Right Protection ” is now available online.
Part of the 2025 LuceSEA series Southeast Asia in Transition: Memory, Governance, and Regional Challenges in a Turbulent World, this session brought together experts Aarie Glas (Northern Illinois University), Daniel Awigra (ASEAN Human Rights Advocacy of the Human Rights Working Group), Sirada Khemanitthathai (Chiang Mai University)and Gillian Bogart (University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa). The experts discussed ASEAN’s dispute-resolution and human-rights mechanisms for both domestic rights concerns within member states, and conflicts between members.

ASEAN Interrelationship: Membership, Conflict Managements, and Human Rights Protection

The webinar highlights the Association for Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN)’s human rights and conflict dispute mechanisms to address member states’ domestic human rights issues and conflicts between member nations. It examines the bloc’s long-standing ‘non-interference’ principle, the ASEAN Intergovernmental Commission on Human Rights (AICHR), and the ASEAN Human Rights Declaration (AHRD) to see how these principles are applying to member states and their citizens.

Hosted by the UH Center for Southeast Asian Studies with support from the Henry Luce Foundation.
