About HEPA


The HEPA Forum is targeted at university professionals involved in planning, and encompasses a diverse range of international perspectives in the formal and informal interactions on planning topics of strong relevance to Asian higher education institutions. The Forum provides a platform to strengthen the planning capabilities of higher education organizations across Asia.

Presentation topics will be highly relevant to the evolving higher education landscape and the impact on Asian universities. Specific planning topics and case studies will be shared and discussed during the panel sessions and interactive breakouts, to facilitate participants learning from each other's experience.

What is special about HEPA?

  • HEPA is not a typical conference event, it is meant to be a gathering of peers and counterparts from various institutions.
  • Participants will derive most value through active engagement and interactions with one another during the program.
  • Establishment of an Asian network of planners will facilitate sharing and peer mentoring, thereby contributing towards the strategic development of institutions across Asia.
