Āzijā EESK uztur attiecības ar pilsoniskās sabiedrības organizācijām Ķīnā, Japānā, Singapūrā, Dienvidkorejā un Vjetnamā.

Pēc ES un Ķīnas 9. samita 2007. gadā tika izveidots ES un Ķīnas pilsoniskās sabiedrības apaļais galds, kura dalībnieki tiekas vienu reizi gadā.

Koordinācijas komiteja ar Japānu tika izveidota 2009. gada februārī, lai uzraudzītu pilsoniskās sabiedrības dimensiju ES un Japānas attiecībās un lai veicinātu sadarbību starp EESK un uzņēmumiem, darba ņēmēju, vides un patērētāju organizācijām, kā arī citām lielākajām pilsoniskās sabiedrības organizācijām Japānā. Saskaņā ar ES un Japānas ekonomisko partnerattiecību nolīgumu tika izveidota ES un Japānas vietējā konsultantu grupa, kas, pamatojoties uz nodaļu par tirdzniecību un ilgtspējīgu attīstību piešķir pilsoniskajai sabiedrībai uzraudzības un padomdevējas lomu.

ES ir noslēgusi brīvās tirdzniecības nolīgumus ar šādām Āzijas valstīm: Dienvidkoreju (2011), Japānu (2019), Singapūru (2019) un Vjetnamu (2020). Minētajiem nolīgumiem ir raksturīgi, ka tajos ir ietvertas nodaļas par tirdzniecību un ilgtspējīgu attīstību un tie oficiāli pilnvaro ar vietējo konsultantu grupu (VKG) starpniecību EESK un citas pilsoniskās sabiedrības organizācijas – kopā ar partnervalsts pilsoniskās sabiedrības organizācijām – uzraudzīt nolīguma īstenošanu un sniegt konsultācijas attiecīgajām politiskajām iestādēm tādās jomās kā vides, sociālie un darba standarti, un citos jautājumos, kas ir tieši saistīti ar pilsonisko sabiedrību. Katru gadu ES VKG rīko divas līdz trīs sanāksmes, un reizi gadā notiek kopīga sanāksme.

Turklāt EESK sadarbojas ar pilsonisko sabiedrību citās Āzijas valstīs un attiecīgos starptautiskos pasākumos uz ad hoc pamata.

    The 2030 Agenda, the new global framework for sustainable development agreed by the UN in 2015, needs to be reflected in EU's development policy, the major orientations of which are set out in the 2005 European Consensus on Development ("the Consensus").

    To this end, the Commission issued Communication COM(2016) 740, "Proposal for a New European Consensus on Development: Our World, Our Dignity, Our Future" in November 2016.  Interinstitutional negotiations are expected to result in its endorsement in the form of a Joint Statement by the Council, the European Parliament and the Commission, in May 2017.

    The European Economic and Social Committee (EESC) warns against granting China market economy status (MES) and  calls on the European institutions to promote fair international competition and actively defend European jobs and European values with efficient trade defence instruments (TDIs). In its opinion, adopted at its 514th plenary session on 14th July, the EESC points to the disastrous impact a possible granting of MES to China would have on Europe's industry and consequently on Europe's labour market. The EESC insists on China's fulfilment of the five EU criteria for achieving the MES.

    The main aim of the review is to assess whether all existing priorities of the EU-Central Asia Strategy remain valid, and whether the EU should maintain its current focus on issues such as security, education, sustainable development (energy, transport and environment), and the rule of law.

    This own initiative opinion looks to examine the agreement already under negotiation between EU and Japan (being the third non-European EU trade partner) and in particular its economic, social and environmental consequences. This agreement is not only dealing with trade, but will have on societies expected consequences to be enlightened and taken in account by negotiators. The automobile sector, public procurement, services, agricultural and pharmaceutical products sectors are, among others, concerned.

    An EU-India Free Trade Agreement (FTA) would cover over a fifth of the global population, making it one of the most significant FTAs in the world. It has the potential to bring significant benefits for society to both the EU and India. However, the EESC is concerned with its uncertain social and environmental effects for the EU, especially in terms of Mode 4 (mobility of workers) and for the poorer segments of Indian society.
