Asia e University (AeU) is a flexible, international university set in Asia, by Asians for Asia under the Asia Cooperation Dialogue (ACD). Its establishment is an initiative of Malaysia, as the prime mover for e-education, with the support of 31 ACD Member Countries as confirmed at the Islamabad 2005 and Doha 2006 ACD Ministerial Meetings.

AeU collaborates with Institutions of Higher Learning (IHLs) and training centres in the 31 ACD Member Countries to offer academic and professional training programmes focusing on affordability, accessibility, and quality.

AeU also acts as a facilitator for the mutual accreditation and recognition of degrees and academic programmes among Asian IHLs. It also acts as an enabler for IHLs in Asia to leverage on each other's resources and facilities including sharing of academic and professional programmes.

AeU is also an instrument for greater Asia- wide cooperation and a catalyst in narrowing the digital divide among communities and nations. It will actively promote e-education efforts to meet the future human capacity needs of Asia. AeU is set to open minds and open doors of opportunities for all in Asia.
