The AUN is also actively involved in collaborative activities with ASEAN’s Dialogue Partners such as China, the European Union, India, Japan, the Republic of Korea and Russia. The AUN’s activities are managed by the AUN Secretariat located in Chulalongkorn University in Bangkok. The Secretariat is headed by an Executive Director, a position currently held by Associate Professor Dr. Piniti Ratananukul.
