EGSO u Aziji održava odnose s organizacijama civilnog društva u Kini, Japanu, Singapuru, Južnoj Koreji i Vijetnamu.

Okrugli stol civilnog društva EU-a i Kine uspostavljen je 2007. godine nakon 9. sastanka na vrhu između EU-a i Kine i sastaje se jednom godišnje.

Odbor za praćenje EU-a i Japana osnovan je u veljači 2009. radi praćenja dimenzije civilnog društva u odnosima EU-a i Japana te promicanja suradnje između EGSO-a i poduzeća, organizacija radnika i potrošača, organizacija za zaštitu okoliša i drugih velikih organizacija civilnog društva u Japanu. U okviru Sporazuma o gospodarskom partnerstvu između EU-a i Japana, u čijem se poglavlju o trgovini i održivom razvoju civilnom društvu dodjeljuje uloga praćenja i savjetovanja, osnovana je Unutarnja savjetodavna skupina EU-a za Japan.

EU je sklopio sporazume o slobodnoj trgovini sa sljedećim azijskim zemljama: Južnom Korejom (2011.), Japanom (2019.), Singapurom (2019.) i Vijetnamom (2020.). Ti sporazumi sadrže poglavlja o trgovini i održivom razvoju te EGSO-u i drugim organizacijama civilnog društva, kao i organizacijama civilnog društva u partnerskim zemljama, u vidu unutarnjih savjetodavnih skupina daju formalnu ulogu u praćenju provedbe i savjetovanju relevantnih političkih tijela u području zaštite okoliša, socijalnih i radnih standarda i drugih pitanja od neposredne važnosti za civilno društvo. Svake se godine održavaju dva do tri sastanka unutarnjih savjetodavnih skupina EU-a, a zajednički sastanak održava se jednom godišnje.

Povrh toga, EGSO surađuje s civilnim društvom i u drugim azijskim zemljama i na pojedinačnoj osnovi sudjeluje u relevantnim međunarodnim događanjima.

    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.
