ASUENE and Lexer Research have signed a MoU for a Human Resource Development project aimed to train GX talent to drive GHG emissions reduction in the ASEAN region

The “Human Resource Development Course ILX” is a program developed by Green CPS Council, a general incorporated association with participation from ASUENE and Lexer Research, along with local partners, Thammasat University in Thailand and INDONESIA-JAPAN BUSINESS NETWORK (IJBNET). This course has been certified as part of AMEICC’s ASEAN Support Program for GX/DX Human Resource Development and it is launched as an industry-government-academia collaboration. The course offers foundational knowledge on calculating a company’s CO2 emissions and assessing the Carbon Footprint (CFP) for products and services, aiming to contribute to the GX talent development to drive decarbonization management in ASEAN based companies.

Background of the MoU

In ASEAN countries, regulations aimed at achieving decarbonization goals are strengthening, making the promotion of decarbonization management for companies based in the region an increasingly essential element. Among these, manufacturing bases are particularly concentrated in ASEAN and account for a significant portion of CO2 emissions. Major manufacturing companies are being required, along with their suppliers, to visualize and reduce CO2 emissions. As a result, there will be a growing demand for talent who can drive decarbonization management in the future.
