Global Engagement Initiatives Under the OIA

Civic Engagement 4.0 (Four Point Zero)

Dignity ~ Justice ~ Sustainability

Civic Engagement 4.0 (CE4.0) is a multi-stakeholder platform that Chulalongkorn University co-established with international partners in 2019 to promote dialogue and to develop ideas and plans to achieve dignity, justice, and sustainability in ASEAN in the era of urbanization and technological advancement.

Sustainability cannot be measured in economic terms alone; environmental, socio-cultural, and spiritual aspects are equally essential. Justice and dignity must therefore be championed as core values when pursuing sustainability. Sustainability also cannot be achieved by a few selected populations alone; it requires all of us. Voices that are often underrepresented and marginalized—particularly those of women, indigenous peoples, migrants, small-scale farmers and fishers, persons with disabilities and youth—must be heard and amplified.

CE4.0 connects ideas, people, action, and innovation to build a future imbued with dignity, justice, and sustainability as core values—a future where every person is respected as a fellow human being. CE4.0 invites global citizens from all sectors of society to share, discuss, and develop ideas and actions to achieve these core values in our era of urbanization and rapid technological change. While CE4.0 focuses on the future of Asia, it collaborates with partners and friends from around the world.

A summary of the CE4.0 highlights during the reporting period is provided below:
