In preparation for increasing ASEAN regional integration, each SEAMEO Ministry of Education (MOE) is engaged in various change management initiatives involving strategic educational planning, educational policy and curricular reforms, programmatic development, human capacity building, and other system improvements. A regional research into the status of these interventions, the challenges being faced, the innovations being pioneered, and remaining issues to be addressed, would be a timely input to support MOEs as they move forward with their ASEAN integration initiatives. The research project is also fully aligned with SEAMEO INNOTECH’s own strategic programmatic priorities (detailed in its 8th and 9th Five-Year Development Plans), of assisting the education sector play its role in moving the Region towards increased economic, socio-cultural, and political integration in support of the ASEAN 2015 Vision.
