APEC Voices of the Future
The APEC Voices of the Future is an annual program that allows special teams of young people and educators from the 21 APEC Economies to attend the APEC Summit.
By working and learning together, the APEC Voices’ teams are able to share their views on the APEC vision with APEC Leaders, Senior Officials, ABAC Members and CEOs.
Through their participation in the APEC process, APEC Voices delegates are given the rare opportunity to engage in dialogues with top policymakers, foster cooperation and prosperity in the classrooms and communities of the Asia-Pacific Region.
This year’s APEC Voices of the Future Program will be held in Da Nang, Viet Nam, in conjunction with the APEC CEO Summit and APEC Leaders’ Week 2017.

My warmest greetings to all outstanding youth delegates to the APEC Voices of the Future 2017. It is an honour for Viet Nam to host APEC for the second time and it gives me great pleasure to welcome all of you to this important event in the coastal city of Da Nang, Viet Nam.
APEC is the premier regional platform for economic leaders to gather and discuss their ideas while listening to stakeholders’ suggestions in an effort to formulate policies that promote sustainable and inclusive growth as well as economic integration. Your passion, talents and involvement in the APEC process both add value to the region while helping to foster a new generation of leaders that are dedicated to free and open trade and investment in the Asia-Pacific.
I encourage you to make the most out of this opportunity to challenge yourselves and learn, not just from the APEC and business leaders, but from your peers as well. Cherish every interaction and value each idea through having earnest dialogues while maintaining an open mind. Do not be shy to ask questions, seek answers and offer possible solutions to the policymakers here. You are the leaders of the future, and together we will keep the APEC process moving forward and make a difference to our region and the world.
As the target year 2020 for the Bogor Goals approaches and APEC is about to enter its fourth decade, it is time for your generation to the take up the baton of building a vision for a dynamic, inter-connected, sustainable and inclusive APEC community. Let us make APEC 2017 a meaningful year for creating new dynamism, fostering a shared future. I hope you have an enjoyable and rewarding experience in Da Nang and may this be a springboard for a better future for all. Do not miss the opportunity to explore the beauty and rich heritage of Da Nang and Viet Nam. We look forward to welcoming you back in the not too distant future.

Message
Dr Alan BollardExecutive DirectorAPEC Secretariat
Two decades ago, APEC leaders met in Bogor, Indonesia and committed to the goal of free and open trade and investment in the Asia-Pacific by 2020. We have made a lot of progress since then.
But as APEC leaders gather in Da Nang, Viet Nam in 2017, they are confronted with a new set of challenges. The region faces slowing growth, as well as multiple changes in the economic and technological climate. It is imperative that APEC steps up its efforts to expand the advantages of market integration, trade and the opening of services to accelerate the realisation of our commitment to the Bogor Goals.
Viet Nam has taken the lead in advancing this year’s priorities to 1) promote sustainable, innovative and inclusive growth; 2) deepen regional economic integration; 3) strengthen the competitiveness and innovation of small and medium businesses in the digital age; and 4) enhance food security and sustainable agriculture in response to climate change.
As APEC seeks to improve the lives of people in the Asia-Pacific region in today’s changing world, leaders have recognised the importance of education in developing human capital to fuel resilience, productivity, inclusiveness and adaptiveness. APEC has committed to fostering strong and vibrant learning systems in support of our next generation of leaders. On the margins of Leaders’ Week, APEC Voices of the Future offers an opportunity for shaping and nurturing the Asia-Pacific’s future leaders.
This extends to encouraging you, APEC’s voices of the future, to engage in meaningful dialogue with key policymakers and business leaders. As our next-generation leaders, we invite you to join us at Da Nang to participate, discuss and share your insights and help the region find new solutions to current and future challenges.

On behalf of the APEC Business Advisory Council (ABAC), it is my pleasure to welcome the delegates of the APEC Voices of the Future to Da Nang, Viet Nam. During the course of your visit, you will have the opportunity to participate in the APEC CEO Summit, which serves as a platform for the public and private economic sectors to share their inputs on key issues and work in partnership to formulate policies that promote sustainable and inclusive growth.
The Voices of the Future Program offers an excellent opportunity for young leaders from the 21 APEC Member Economies to engage APEC Leaders and Business Leaders to lend and receive insights on the issues and challenges we face in today’s global economy. We strongly encourage your involvement in the process as the outcome of these dialogues will help shape the world you will live in.
For 2017, ABAC adopts the theme “Creating New Dynamism, Fostering a Shared Future”. As a result of trade liberalization, people today live significantly better lives than the previous generations. Our long-term vision of a more dynamic and integrated APEC region is driven by our conviction that this will deliver sustainable and inclusive growth for our communities. As we face a slowly recovering global economy, the APEC leaders would need courage and determination to deepen the regional economic integration towards the eventual realization of the Free Trade Area of the Asia-Pacific. ABAC has also recognized that in an increasingly globalized world with rapid technological changes, innovation is key in sustaining dynamic development of our economies. Jobs will increasingly demand different skills, especially in the realm of digital technology, and workers and economies must be able to adapt quickly and successfully to the evolving environment in order to enable the economic benefits to be widely shared.
Your participation at the VOF 2017 program marks the starting point as the next group of thought leaders that will pave the way for our future. Your diverse backgrounds are instrumental in bringing new ideas in our discussions to develop an integrated global community.
Again, a warm welcome to Da Nang. I hope that you will have a fruitful event and a pleasant stay here.

Cooperation and Coordination with APEC and ABAC
The annual APEC Voices program is organized and operated in cooperation and coordination with the APEC Secretariat, the ABAC Chair, the ABAC host committee, the Official APEC Host Committee, and the APEC CEO Summit. Following APEC’s guiding principles of consensus and flexibility, the APEC Voices Leadership Council works with all these offices and officials to plan the annual APEC Voices Program in the way that works best for the APEC Host Economy and the supporting organizations, events and venues, so as to provide the APEC-engaged learning experiences for our students and educators.
The Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) is a regional economic forum established in 1989 to leverage the growing interdependence of the Asia-Pacific. APEC’s 21 members aim to create greater prosperity for the people of the region by promoting balanced, inclusive, sustainable, innovative and secure growth and by accelerating regional economic integration. APEC ensures that goods, services, investment and people move easily across borders. Members facilitate this trade through faster customs procedures at borders; more favorable business climates behind the border; and aligning regulations and standards across the region.
The APEC Business Advisory Council (ABAC) was created by the APEC Economic Leaders in November 1995 to provide advice on the implementation of the Osaka Action Agenda and on other specific business sector priorities, and to respond when the various APEC fora request information about business-related issues or to provide the business perspective on specific areas of cooperation. ABAC comprises of up to three members of the private sector from each economy. ABAC members are appointed by their respective Leaders, and represent a range of business sectors, including small and medium enterprises. The economy determines the term of membership of each appointee as well as its own administrative arrangements and staff support.

History of the APEC Voices of the Future Program
The APEC Voices was launched in Kuala Lumpur in 1998 at the APEC Malaysia Summit.
Since then, the APEC Voices program has grown from strength to strength. The program is enriched by the APEC Host Committees, ABAC Chairs and ABAC Members, and the APEC CEO Summits in New Zealand (1999), Brunei (2000), Mexico (2002), Chile (2004), Korea (2005), Vietnam (2006), Australia (2007), Peru (2008), Singapore (2009), Japan (2010), USA (2011), Russia (2012), Indonesia (2013), People’s Republic of China (2014), The Philippines (2015) and Peru (2016).
The APEC Voices Leadership Council and its permanent Co-Chairs were first organized in the APEC New Zealand of 1999, and grew with the addition of the official Voices programs in the APEC Economies of China, Mexico and Singapore.
In 2005, New Zealand Voices inaugurated the first mid-year preparatory Voices program for all interested New Zealand students and educators, inviting visiting Voices delegations as well. Mexico Voices also expanded its annual preparatory calendar and joined in the Kiwi mid-year schedule.
In 2007, China Voices inaugurated the most extensive preparatory program to date, which has been implemented in more than 100 campuses throughout the vast APEC Economy.
Later in 2008, during the APEC Voices program in Peru, the planning for the APEC Voices program and Secretariat in Singapore began, in coordination and in cooperation with the Singapore Voices and Singapore’s APEC Host Year.
In 2009, over 120 delegates attended the annual APEC Voices program in Singapore from 9 to 15 November 2009. Main topics of discussion were the current issues affecting the APEC Economies such as economic recovery, support for multilateral trading systems, and regional economic integration.
In 2010, over 100 delegates from 17 APEC Economies participated in the APEC Voices program in Yokohama, Japan, from 8 to 14 November 2010. APEC Voices delegates were given the opportunity to meet and interact with APEC Leaders, Ministers and business leaders during the APEC week.
In 2011, more than 120 APEC Voices delegates attended the APEC Voices Program in Honolulu, USA, from 7 to 13 November 2012. One of the highlights of the event was a dialogue with H.E. Francisco J Sanchez, Under Secretary of Commerce for International Trade, U.S. Department of Commerce. Delegates also discussed security issues in the Pacific Rim with Admiral Patrick Walsh, Commander of the U.S Pacific Fleet. Such platforms provided the youth delegates with an overview of the various issues faced by the region and how youth leaders can play a role in finding solutions for these issues. In 2012, the APEC Voices Leadership Council sent a small group of 15 APEC Voices

History of the APEC Voices of the Future Program
Representatives from 16 APEC Member Economies to Vladivostok, Russia, from 2 to 9 September 2012. The APEC Voices delegates were invited by the Russian Host Committee to engage APEC Leaders, Ministers and business leaders during the APEC CEO Summit. It was an enriching experience for many youth leaders who were in Russia for the first time.
In 2013, APEC Voices delegates were in Bali, Indonesia, for the APEC Voices Program from 2 to 8 October 2013. Voices delegates were privileged to have a dialogue with H.E. Gita Wirjawan, Trade Minister of the Republic of Indonesia, on the challenges faced by Indonesian youth and Indonesia’s role at regional and global trade scene. Additionally, APEC Voices delegates were also honored to meet H.E. Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, President of the Republic of Indonesia, at the Bali Convention Centre during the APEC CEO Summit 2013.
In 2014, the APEC Voices was held in Beijing, People’s Republic of China, from 5 to 11 November 2014. More than 116 APEC Voices delegates from the 16 economies attended the program. It allowed delegates to experience a rich cultural immersion through visiting historical sites including the Great Wall of China and Forbidden City. More importantly, it also allowed interactions with local youth and participation in the APEC CEO Summit.
In 2015, the APEC Voices was held in Manila, Philippines, from 12 to 19 November 2015. It was first time for the Philippines to host the APEC Voices program. Main topics of discussion were ways to enhance the regional economic integration, fostering the participation of SMEs in regional and global markets, investing in human capital development and building sustainable and resilient communities.
In 2016, the APEC Voices was held in Lima, Peru, from 14 to 20 November 2016. It was Peru’s second time hosting the APEC Voices program since 2008, the year they last hosted. More than 120 youth participants and educators engaged in discussions with business leaders and government officials on issues such as advancing regional integration and growth, developing human capital, enhancing the regional food market and the modernization of MSMEs in the Asia-Pacific.
This year, the APEC Voices will be held in Da Nang, Vietnam, from 5 to 11 November 2017. Voices delegates of the 21 APEC economies will be able to discuss with business and economic leaders under this year’s theme of “Creating New Dynamism, Fostering a Shared Future”. Delegates will also have the opportunity to interact with the local community and to get to know the Vietnamese culture.

Logo Interpretation
Tran Thi Yen Chau, a graphic designer from Hue, Viet Nam, designed this year’s APEC Voices of the Future logo.
The Logo is designed to encompass this year’s theme of “Creating New Dynamism, Fostering a Shared Future” within its three layers and seven parts that represent the 21 participating APEC economies.
The inner layer features leaves that signify youth, growth and future. The middle layer shows a rotating turbine, portraying dynamism and energy radiating from the youth. The outer layer shows big, bold strokes, which are likened to sound waves, which are the voices of the youth. Together, the middle and outer layers form up to resemble the petals of the Lotus, a graceful flower which symbolises the beauty and rich culture of Viet Nam.
Tran Thi Yen Chau, 23 years old, is a graphic designer who was born and raised in Hue, Viet Nam. She graduated from Foreign Trade University in Ho Chi Minh City with a degree in International Economics.
Having a passion for arts and design, she is pursuing her dream as a designer at Desvlab. She loves every single moment when she is doing something creative.

HOI AN
Hoi An Ancient Town is located in Viet Nam’s central Quang Nam Province, on the north bank near the mouth of the Thu Bon River. The inscribed property comprises 30 ha and it has a buffer zone of 280 ha. It is an exceptionally well-preserved example of a small-scale trading port active the 15th to 19th centuries which traded widely, both with the countries of Southeast and East Asia and with the rest of the world. Its decline in the later 19th century ensured that it has retained its traditional urban tissue to a remarkable degree.
The town reflects a fusion of indigenous and foreign cultures (principally Chinese and Japanese with later European influences) that combined to produce this unique survival.
The town comprises a well-preserved complex of 1,107 timber frame buildings, with brick or wooden walls, which include architectural monuments, commercial and domestic vernacular structures, notably an open market and a ferry quay, and religious buildings such as pagodas and family cult houses. The houses are tiled and the wooden components are carved with traditional motifs. They are arranged side-by-side in tight, unbroken rows along narrow pedestrian streets. There is also the fine wooden Japanese bridge, with a pagoda on it, dating from the 18th century. The original street plan, which developed as the town became a port, remains. It comprises a grid of streets with one axis parallel to the river and the other axis of streets and alleys set at right angles to it. Typically, the buildings front the streets for convenient customer access while the backs of the buildings open to the river allowing easy loading and off-loading of goods from boats.
The surviving wooden structures and street plan are original and intact and together present a traditional townscape of the 17th and 18th centuries, the survival of which is unique in the region. The town continues to this day to be occupied and function as a trading port and centre of commerce. The living heritage reflecting the diverse communities of the indigenous inhabitants of the town, as well as foreigners, has also been preserved and continues to be passed on. Hoi An Ancient Town remains an exceptionally well-preserved example of a Far Eastern port.

The June Mayne Gould Leadership Award for
APEC Voices of the Future
June Mayne Gould began her Asia Pacific journey in Golden Square, Bendigo, Australia, in 1919. She was the second child of a family grown from two generations of miners, who worked in the Australian gold mines, and teachers, who came to help build the schools and churches in this booming town that helped build the State of Victoria.
Growing up in Port Melbourne, June soon found she had the call of the sea in her heart and trained for surf lifesaving, receiving many certificates and awards for her achievement. All these and more led her to travel in Oceania and the greater Asia Pacific as an adult, settling in Long Beach, California, a major port town like Melbourne, to raise her family.
Although June did not have a formal education herself, due to the lack of family finances and the onset of the second World War, the home schooling and mentoring she received from her grandmother, aunt and mother, who were all top teachers in their towns, made her a keen observer of world events and a constant and vigorous encourager of all those around her to do their best. She was always happy to help people in need. Throughout her 30 plus years as a retail manager in the States, June mentored many young female executives who, like her, rose through the ranks of the large department store chain they worked for.
June’s generosity in letting her son, Noel Gould, Founding Member and Co-chair, APEC Voices Leadership Council, use a good portion of her modest retirement savings to help develop the Voices of the Future for APEC, helped to establish the program’s first years in Malaysia (1998), New Zealand (1999) and Brunei (2000). Thanks to the financial contribution of June, the Voices of the Future for APEC has grown from strength to strength and is known today as APEC Voices of the Future.
The June Mayne Gould Leadership Award for the APEC Voices of the Future, which was launched at the APEC Voices 2011 in Honolulu, is named in honor of June Mayne Gould for her immense contributions in the development of youth leaders in the 21 APEC Member Economies and will be presented annually to an outstanding student who has demonstrated sincere, positive, encouraging, helpful character and leadership throughout the APEC Voices Week, greatly contributing to the program by helping other students do their best and get the most out of their APEC experience.
The recipient of the June Mayne Gould Leadership Award will receive an APEC Voices Scholarship, where the award winner will have the opportunity to participate in the following year’s APEC Voices program.
