EU-ASEAN: Why a Partnership Across Continents Matters to Your Future?

What does the EU-ASEAN relationship mean for your future?

Join us for a public lecture with Leila Fernandez-Stembridge, Head of the Southeast Asia & ASEAN Division at the European External Action Service (EEAS), the EU’s diplomatic service, as she unpacks why a partnership across continents matters closer to home than you might think.

Fernandez-Stembridge brings over two decades of experience at EU institutions, spanning economic affairs in China, Greece’s post-crisis recovery, and EU foreign policy. She now leads the EU’s political and strategic engagement with ASEAN and its eleven member states from Brussels.
