Who sets the APEC agenda and work plan?
APEC operates with the consent of the Economic Leaders and Ministers of APEC Member Economies who meet throughout the year to chart the future of trade and investment cooperation in the Asia-Pacific region. At the highest level, the leaders of APEC Member Economies guide the APEC process. At the Economic Leaders’ Meeting that is held at the end of each APEC year, a declaration is issued which lays out the priorities for APEC over the following year. Ministers representing various portfolios, Senior Officials and members of various APEC forums meet throughout the following year to launch new initiatives, track the progress of existing programmes and implement directives from the leaders.
