The ASEAN-UK Health Security Partnership (HSP) is a five-year initiative focused on strengthening health security and access to care across the eleven ASEAN member states. It addresses urgent challenges like antimicrobial resistance, pandemic preparedness, health system resilience and other health impacts.
Through collaboration with UK diplomatic missions in the region, ASEAN health institutions and national stakeholders, the programme supports capacity building, and implementation of national and regional health priorities. By promoting a One Health approach and aligning with the priorities of ASEAN’s Health Clusters, the HSP fosters access to health through targeted funding and technical support.
FHI 360 UK is leading the consortium of regional and international organisations delivering HSP, focusing on an evidence-based grant facility and a dynamic peer exchange platform—both designed to advance ASEAN and national priorities through funding, knowledge sharing, and cross-border collaboration.
