Welcome
The Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung (KAS) is a political foundation in Germany which operates two education centres and 16 education institutes nationwide. Around the world, our offices abroad look after more than 200 projects in more than 120 countries. We have two headquarters, one in Sankt Augustin near Bonn and one in Berlin, where we opened the Academy as a conference building in 1998. KAS realizes a substantial contribution to international cooperation and understanding. It is named after the first Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany, Konrad Adenauer.
The Regional Programmes in East and Southeast Asia, based in Singapore, focus on three key areas, namely Political Dialogue, Media and the Rule of Law.
As far as the Media Programme
is concerned, it aims at promoting a free, responsible and ethical press in the region. This is achieved by intensifying the dialogue amongst leading journalists in Southeast Asia through regional conferences and meetings as well as through training activities for journalists in the region.
As far as the Political Dialogue Programme
is concerned, it promotes regional democratization, decentralization and the consolidation of civil society in order to strengthen political, economic and social stability in the region.
As far as the Rule of Law Programme
is concerned, it aims at promoting the rule of law development within the ASEAN+3 Region through regional seminars, research and training activities. |
