Purpose and program areas
The Asia Foundation is a nonprofit, nongovernmental organization committed to the development of a
peaceful, prosperous, just, and open Asia-Pacific region. The Foundation supports Asian initiatives to
improve governance and law, economic development, women's empowerment, the environment, and
regional cooperation.
Books for Asia
Books for Asia puts one million brand-new books into the hands of students, educators, and local and
national leaders in 18 countries annually. We empower future and current leaders with information
because we know that an educated population is better equipped to fight poverty, disease, injustice,
and instability.
