Our ISEAS experts make sense of the rapid economic growth and fast-evolving geopolitical landscape in Southeast Asia through rigorous research and fieldwork, to help us react nimbly to breaking events and challenges concerning the region.
Since 1968, ISEAS’s work has been deeply relevant to policymakers, business leaders, government organisations and the scholarly community. On a regional level, we are attentive to ASEAN integration and regional geopolitics. On a country level, we focus on Malaysia, Indonesia, Vietnam, Thailand and Myanmar.
Our events and activities, endowment gifts, ISEAS research and general projects are made possible through the generosity of ISEAS donors and institutional partners, who share our commitment to quality, independence and relevancy of ISEAS research through financial contributions and intellectual engagement.
We invite you to support ISEAS as we continue to create a positive impact on Southeast Asia and the world.
ISEAS is non-partisan in its staff and Board composition. ISEAS is an Institution of a Public Character (IPC), under ISEAS RESEARCH FUNDS, reflecting the diversity of its donors and supporters.
ISEAS offers a unique value proposition for you to be actively involved in the intellectual support of the institute.

Events and Activities
Event sponsorship at ISEAS encompasses flagship events from the Regional Outlook Forum (ROF) to public conferences. ISEAS hosts half-day to one-day conferences for policymakers, business leaders, government organisations and the scholarly community to discuss developments and challenges facing Southeast Asia. Supporters enable ISEAS to promote interest and understanding in Southeast Asia, as well as help in the growth and development of the region.
Endowment Gifts
Your endowment gift supports initiatives that perpetuate the work of ISEAS. Each year, a portion of the gift is used to support the chosen purpose of the donor’s gift, while preserving the capital sum. Through your gift, ISEAS can support initiatives that can extend to future generations in perpetuity.
Financial aid endowment, such as a scholarship, supports talented local scholars to pursue postgraduate/PhD studies. Your named scholarship establishes a permanent legacy of support for ISEAS and will ensure that driven and capable young individuals are empowered to contribute to ISEAS research and fieldwork in Southeast Asia.
ISEAS currently offers:

c. Other Gifts
Donors can establish endowment gifts through bequests, charitable trusts or other gift vehicles that take place after their lifetimes.
