16th Biennial Conference-Worksho

How it Started...

APECA was formed in 1976 in Manila, Philippines, when 40 counsellors from 9 Asian countries gathered together at DE LA SALLE UNIVERSITY to deliberate on the future of counselling in Asia. From these 40 Charter Members, APECA has now grown to over 300 registered members from different countries.

Since its inception, APECA Biennial Conference -Workshops are regularly held, with the site rotating among the countries from which it draws it membership. To date, thirteen (13) Biennal Conference - Workshops (click here to view complete listing) have been held. The milestone Silver Anniversary took place in Thailand and Cambodia in 2001.

APECA continues to help its members grow as counsellors, and strengthens the practice of the profession. It has survived and remained solvent with very little funding support, with the commitment of its members to keep going, as its main driving force.
