The 2008 Asia-Pacific Leadership Programme on Environment for Sustainable Development was held in Shanghai from 15 – 18 September 2008, followed by field visit in Suzhou on 19 – 20 September 2008. This year more than 320 applications were received, which is the largest number of applications in comparison to the previous years. After a careful selection on the basis of their leadership potential and prospect of positions of influence, while also maintaining sub-regional balance, 28 applicants from 19 countries were selected as participants of the 2008 Asia-Pacific Leadership Programme on Environment for Sustainable Development. The resource persons came mostly from the UNEP Asia-Pacific Regional University Consortium. The Hanns Seidel Foundation generously sponsored participants from the ASEAN countries. 2008 also marked the fifth anniversary of the annual Asia-Pacific Leadership Programmes.
