On the 15th of June 2017, the Regional Conference on Quality Assurance of Higher Education in Asia-Pacific was held in Wuzhou Guesthouse, centrally located in Shenzhen. The event attracted more than 100 top education industry leaders from over 30 countries.

The final objective is to shape the regional consensus in a set of reports for the UNESCO 2018 International Conference on Quality Assurance in Higher Education in Paris, and define the Shenzhen statement on quality and inclusive higher education in Asia and the Pacific.

Speakers from Malaysia, Thailand, Japan, France and other countries delivered talks on stimulating and innovating topics. Group workshops were also held to encourage exchanges of ideas and connections between the top education bodies of the region to further progress education across the world and leverage new technologies.
