Concept, Design, Content and Production of the 2016 Annual Report

Project

ASEF is looking to produce the 2016 Annual Report which targets its primary stakeholders, as well as members of the
general public.

Background on the Asia-Europe Foundation (ASEF)

The Asia-Europe Foundation (ASEF) promotes understanding, strengthens relationships and facilitates cooperation among
the people, institutions and organisations of Asia and Europe. ASEF enhances dialogue, enables exchanges and
encourages collaboration across the thematic areas of culture, economy, education, governance, public health and
sustainable development. ASEF is an intergovernmental not-for-profit organisation located in Singapore. Established in
1997, it is the only permanent institution of the Asia-Europe Meeting (ASEM).

Together with about 750 partner organisations, ASEF has run more than 700 projects, mainly conferences, seminars and
workshops. Over 20,000 Asians and Europeans have actively participated in its activities. It has reached wide audiences
through its networks, online media, publications, exhibitions and lectures. (www.asef.org)

Project Background

ASEF produces the Annual Report to provide its stakeholders (including the ASEF Governors, ASEM Senior Officials, ASEM
Contact Points, partner organisations, participants and alumni) with an overview of its activities and financials in 2016.
The Annual Report is a tool that reinforces the understanding of ASEF’s mission and themes through the achievements
accomplished over the year. The Annual Report is a comprehensive and visually appealing channel of reporting on ASEF,
and to create greater awareness about ASEF, its projects and activities. Important to note is that 2017 is ASEF’s 20th
Anniversary, which will receive special emphasis in the Annual Report.

Objectives

2. To communicate ASEF as a forward-looking intergovernmental not-for-profit organisation.
3. To create an engaging brand experience through innovative design, concept and content.
4. To celebrate the 20th Anniversary of ASEF. This theme should be integrated throughout the report.

Target audiences

1. ASEF stakeholders (ASEF Governors, ASEM government officials, partner organisations, event participants,
