Name of Project Overseer Name of Fora Chair/Lead Shepherd Date: Self-Funded Project SynopsisRelevance – Benefits to region: What problem does the project seek to address? Does it have sustained benefits for more than one economy?Education has been recognised as an essential area for regional cooperation since the foundation of APEC. Education supports sustainable economic growth and prosperity in Asia Pacific Region. Education research is foundation of evidence-based policymaking. The APEC economies increasingly look to policies and practices of other economies to inform and inspire their policymaking.The project proposes to extend APEC Education Research Network that has provided intellectual and technical support to the work of Education Network as well as education collaboration of member economies, with expertise and resources of the National Institute of Education Sciences of China. From 2015 to 2020, the network has contributed to the development of APEC Education Strategy and its action plan, “APEC Education Strategy Dialogue: Competencies, Innovation and Employability” and APEC Report on Education and Economic Development, among other things. Recognizing the need for knowledge sharing and mutual learning among APEC member economies, it will build on lessons and experiences gained from past five years and push forward education research collaboration involving research organizations, education institutions and private sectors for the benefits of all APEC member economies.Relevance – Capacity Building: How will the project build the capacity of APEC members (refer to capacity building goals, objectives and principles at Appendix K of the Guidebook). APEC Education Research Network will build the capacity of APEC members through obtaining, sharing, strengthening, maintaining and developing knowledge, abilities, skills and technical know-how to improve their policies and practices in the education sector.The purpose of the Network is to facilitate communication of policies and related research in APEC economies for them to learn from each other, to inform and inspire policymakers and researchers in APEC economies by sharing best practices; to engage in joint research to address common challenges in the APEC region, and to consolidate knowledge sharing for dissemination on a larger scale. Another function of the APEC Education Research Network is to provide institutional memory for previous works. It builds on experience and lessons learned from previous projects to reinforce capacities of participating education institutions and complement the work of other stakeholders. In particular, it will fulfil the needs and opportunities of members in a catalytic way, so as to facilitate each member’s efforts and support member economies to own the institutional capacity acquired for long term impact.In doing so, hopefully it will help attain sustainable growth and equitable development in the Asia-Pacific region, reduce economic disparities among APEC economies, improve the economic and social well-being of the people; and deepen the spirit of community in the Asia Pacific.Objectives: State the key objectives of the project.
