Our People
The ASAP Secretariat is headquartered in Singapore and is responsible for the daily management of the Partnership and implementation of the strategy. The Secretariat team works directly with ASAP Partners to accelerate ASAP Species conservation, and is hosted by Mandai Nature.
The Governing Council is made up of ASAP Partner organisations, and is the body responsible for governance, oversight and ensuring financial and administrative integrity. We are a wide community, all working together towards a vision where species on the brink of extinction in Southeast Asia are protected and thriving.
