V Asii udržuje EHSV vztahy s organizacemi občanské společnosti v Číně, Japonsku, Singapuru, Jižní Koreji a ve Vietnamu.

V roce 2007 byl v návaznosti na 9. vrcholnou schůzku EU-Čína vytvořen oficiální kulatý stůl občanské společnosti EU-Čína, jenž se koná jednou ročně.

V únoru 2009 byl zřízen monitorovací výbor EU–Japonsko, jehož úkolem je monitorovat aspekty týkající se občanské společnosti ve vztazích mezi EU a Japonskem a podporovat spolupráci mezi EHSV a organizacemi podnikatelů, pracovníků, spotřebitelů, environmentálními organizacemi a dalšími důležitými organizacemi občanské společnosti v Japonsku. V rámci dohody mezi EU a Japonskem o hospodářském partnerství byla zřízena interní poradní skupina EU–Japonsko. V kapitole této dohody věnované obchodu a udržitelnému rozvoji se občanské společnosti přiznává monitorovací a poradní úloha.

EU uzavřela dohody o volném obchodu s těmito asijskými zeměmi: Jižní Koreou (2011), Japonskem (2019), Singapurem (2019) a Vietnamem (2020). Pro tyto dohody je charakteristické, že obsahují kapitoly o obchodu a udržitelném rozvoji a přiznávají EHSV a dalším organizacím občanské společnosti spolu s organizacemi občanské společnosti partnerských zemí formální úlohu, jež spočívá ve sledování provádění dohod a poskytování poradenství příslušným politickým orgánům v oblasti ekologických, sociálních a pracovních norem a v souvislosti s dalšími záležitostmi, které mají pro občanskou společnost bezprostřední význam. Tato činnost se provádí prostřednictvím interních poradních skupin. Každý rok se konají dvě až tři schůze interních poradních skupin EU a společná schůze pak jednou ročně.

EHSV navíc příležitostně spolupracuje s občanskou společností i v dalších asijských zemích a podílí se na relevantních mezinárodních akcích.

  • Strengthening European Growth and Competitiveness: Proactive Trade Agenda – NOW!

    Helsinki
    Finland

    The EESC Employers' Group is organising a seminar on "Strengthening European Growth and Competitiveness: Proactive Trade Agenda – NOW!" taking place on 26 October in Helsinki and jointly organized with the Confederation of Finnish Industries and the International Chamber of Commerce, ICC Finland.

    Trade and Investment are hugely important for the EU: 1 in 7 EU jobs depend on exports. The EU cannot risk falling behind in the global race to build a wide and ambitious network of free trade agreements. The signing of the Trans Pacific Partnership (TPP) agreement (involving 12 countries and 40% of world GDP) is a timely reminder of this. This seminar, which will be attended by many of our Members together with Finnish employers and entrepreneurs, politicians and academics aims to examine how to best contribute positively to the debate as trade agreements (TTIP - TISA - CETA - EU-JAPAN) increasingly become a top political issue.
