The Asian Students Environment Platform (ASEP) 2019 journey has reached its

culmination in underscoring the theme of Sustainable Peace Building as the central pillar of

its endeavours. Throughout the immersive six-day program, participants from diverse

academic backgrounds and cultural contexts delved deep into the intricacies of

promoting peace through sustainable development practices. Against the backdrop of

Cambodia's rich cultural heritage and environmental challenges, ASEP 2019 provided a

dynamic platform for exploring the interconnectedness between environmental

sustainability, social cohesion, and peace. From thought-provoking lectures on eco-

friendly initiatives to hands-on activities like tree planting at cultural heritage sites,

participants gained invaluable insights into the transformative power of sustainable

practices in fostering resilience and harmony within communities. The final group

presentations, crafted under the theme "What is Sustainable Peace Building?", epitomized

the program's commitment to innovative solutions rooted in the cultural and historical

context of Cambodia. As participants bid farewell to Cambodia and each other, they carry

with them not only certificates and awards but also a profound sense of purpose and

determination to champion sustainable peace-building initiatives in their respective

communities and beyond. As they embark on their journey home, they leave behind a

legacy of collaboration, compassion, and hope, embodying the spirit of ASEP 2019 and its

enduring mission to build a more sustainable and peaceful world for all.
