AICHR DIALOGUES ON PATHWAYS AND APPROACHES TO PEACE THROUGH

ASEAN WORKSHOPS ON MECHANISMS FOR CONFLICT PREVENTION,

PEACEBUILDING AND HUMAN RIGHTS IN JAKARTA, INDONESIA

13–15 AUGUST 2025


The ASEAN Intergovernmental Commission on Human Rights (AICHR), led by Malaysia with co-proponents Indonesia and Thailand, will convene the next series of workshops in continuation of the “AICHR Regional Training Programme on Human Rights – Workshops on Intersection Between Conflict and Human Rights: Pathways and Approaches to Peace in ASEAN” from 13 to 15 August 2025 in Jakarta, Indonesia.

These workshops form part of a six-part programme designed to develop an ASEAN framework for conflict prevention, crisis management, and peacebuilding in the region to meet the aspirations of the Kuala Lumpur Declaration on ASEAN 2045: Our Shared Future adopted on 26 May 2025.

The three Jakarta workshops will discuss mechanisms for conflict prevention and peacebuilding, international peace frameworks and approaches, and protecting human rights of all in conflict situations, while using a case study simulation to explore practical applications of ASEAN’s peace initiatives.

Bringing together ASEAN representatives, diplomats, academics, peace mediators, experts, and civil society, the workshops aim to foster dialogue, exchange good practices, and strengthen collaborative approaches to advance inclusive and rights-based approaches to peace across the region.

This initiative is part of Malaysia’s inclusivity and sustainability agenda to promote and protect regional peace and security as the 2025 ASEAN Chair.
