Under the theme "Join, Work, Grow. Together," leaders, ministers and senior officials from APEC economies will solidify their commitment to responding to the health and economic crisis and collectively determine a path for the region's recovery that ensures resilience and sustainability.

Concluding technical discussions on Friday, which sets the stage for ministers to round out concrete commitments on Monday and Tuesday, Vangelis Vitalis, the 2021 Chair of APEC Senior Officials, said there was never a more important time for economies to work together to share, rebuild and recover. He added senior officials have met throughout the year and worked intersessionally on various programs to advance APEC’s work to be responsive to the crisis and relevant to the recovery.

Beyond setting a course through the current crisis, senior officials have discussed APEC’s work for the next two decades in the form of a plan to implement the APEC Vision 2040.

The week will culminate with the APEC Economic Leaders’ Meeting on 11-12 November, to be chaired by Prime Minister Ardern, which will provide the strategic vision and directives for future collaboration between APEC member economies.
