Created in partnership with the ASEAN Business Advisory Council (ASEAN BAC) Philippines, the Strategic Action Plan (SAP) is a forward-looking policy framework designed to support the Philippines’ 2026 ASEAN Chairship and ASEAN’s broader regional priorities. Through close collaboration between the public and private sectors, this initiative contributes practical solutions across five strategic pillars: sustainability and food security; healthcare; sustainable supply chains and logistics; digital economy and and workforce development; and artificial Intelligence.  The SAP is grounded in five Discussion Papers, each taken up in a dedicated Roundtable Discussion held from March to April 2026 with government agencies, development partners, and civil society. It serves not only as a Chairship-year agenda, but as a long-term roadmap intended to establish institutional foundations that future ASEAN Chairships—Singapore in 2027 and Thailand in 2028—can build upon.
