The Asia Commune is an anti-capitalist, anti-authoritarian, non-elitist and egalitarian community of progressive social, political, environmental and cultural activists who stand for freedom, democracy, social justice and equality for the oppressed, exploited and discriminated peoples of Asia. We stand in solidarity with the peoples’ struggles against all forms of oppression, exploitation and discrimination: for the Commune, there is no hierarchical order of peoples’ struggles; we give each and every struggle of the oppressed, exploited and discriminated peoples equal recognition.

The objective of the Commune is to provide a platform for progressive and radical social, political, environmental and cultural activists to share their experiences and perspectives for discourse and gain insights into their practices.

The Commune, we hope, will contribute to creating an atmosphere for mutual understanding of issues encountered by the activists at the grass-roots level in particular contexts of the peoples’ struggles in a spirit of solidarity.
