Welcome to AWLF

One Team, One Asia.
1000 Asia Women Leaders, Beautiful Asia. We are a family of 4.7 billion people in Asia.

By 2030, 1,000 Asian women leaders will collaborate to empower Asian women and children and create a virtuous cycle for beautiful Asia. Through collaboration, imagine the significant impact we will have on the world as one?

AWLF is committed to nurturing a platform where Asian leaders working at the forefront can co-create together with you for the sake of a good cycle in a beautiful Asia.

While Asia is an attractive place , it is also facing a number of challenges that are becoming more serious, such as the decrease in educational and employment opportunities due to the unstable international situation, the widening economic disparity, exploitation of women and children, global environmental issues, and epidemic risks, which are all linked to global risks. A better Asia will have a comprehensive impact on the entire planet.

At this time of transition, Asian women have great potential and influence varying from home to the country’s economy. Therefore, no one should be left behind for the people of Asia to prosper. We can begin with empowering Asian women and children through collaboration with female leaders who recognize that the voices of the voiceless are essential.

AWLF is committed to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in Asia. We will promote the spread of a sustainable global system in which diverse individuals shine through the collaboration of front-line leaders that transcends generations, borders, and industries.

We hope that we can connect the next generation to a beautiful Asia and a beautiful earth full of smiles spreading from women. We hope to grow with you, support each other, and contribute to Asia and the world. We look forward to your continued support.

Bringing Asia together with love of the Earth.
Combining people, goods, information, wealth & wisdom to propose solutions to problems throughout Asia.

Leaders on the front lines, working together to envision Asia’s ideal future.

Connecting and getting to know each other across borders, generations, and industry is an essential first step toward a beautiful Asia!

The lives, values, thoughts, and sincere efforts of the leaders introduced by AWLF are filled with experience and wisdom. We are convinced that this will not only empower Asian women and children but also comprehensively empower humanity and the planet.

With a group of diverse role models of Asian women leaders, we will embark on the journey of empowerment. To create and partner with you, we will create a beautiful cycle in Asia where various individuals can shine.
