APRRN is a network of more than 200 civil society organisations and individuals covering more than 30 countries in the Asia Pacific region. APRRN was formed in November 2008 at the first Asia Pacific Consultation on Refugee Rights (APCRR), held in Malaysia, in which representatives of 70 civil society organisations from 14 countries determined the necessity of establishing a coordinating entity to convene collaborative action and thus progress and advance refugee rights across the region. APRRN aims to advance the rights of refugees and other people in need of protection in the Asia Pacific region. APRRN is a collaborative movement which advances the rights of refugees and other people in need of protection-including refugees, people seeking asylum, torture survivors and complainants, trafficked persons, IDPs, stateless persons, migrants in vulnerable situations and returnees-in the Asia Pacific region so they may have equal and adequate access to assistance and protection, and to timely durable solutions. APRRN's Secretariat is a trusted advisor and crucial resource. We deliver the essential toolkit to facilitate joint, comprehensive and far-reaching refugee rights advocacy in the region, to ensure refugees, migrants and asylum seekers have access to equitable assistance, socioeconomic inclusion, protection and timely durable solutions. This includes delivering human rights capacity building; distributing emerging information regarding inclusion and human rights; convening forums and learning exchanges for members and non-members to facilitate essential discourse; sharing best practices; and engendering collaborative advocacy action to advance refugee rights in the Asia Pacific region. Advocacy conducted in silo is ineffective. APRRN facilitates cross-cultural collaboration and regional action of otherwise isolated human rights groups, galvanising and directing momentum to ensure the region is effectively, safely and collaboratively demanding action and thereby advancing the socioeconomic inclusion and equitable human rights of refugees and asylum seekers. APRRN's action is critical to ensure governments in Asia Pacific implement refugee rights legislation, to prevent and end severe violations of fundamental human rights such as immigration detention, Rohingya persecution and loss of life at sea. By working together as a regional network, our ability to hold national governments to account is magnified, and therefore we can achieve the greatest inclusive policy and legislative change to advance the equal rights of refugees and asylum seekers in the region. The Asia Pacific Refugee Rights Network is registered as a Foundation in Thailand, under the name Foundation for the Rights of Disadvantaged Populations, on the advice of legal professionals. In practice the two entities function as a singular body, the Asia Pacific Refugee Rights Network.

The Vision of the organization has always been to be a refugee run organization attuned to refugee needs and positioned to craft interventions responsive to those needs. The focus has evolved over the years as conditions have changed. In the early days, the primary need was to respond to and alert the public and authorities to the horrific experiences of refugees as they fled Arakan state in Myanmar (Burma) and made their way to the "relative" safety of Malaysia. Many refugees were sold into slavery and others were killed for unpaid ransom demanded from their families in Myanmar and, sadly, others were killed for organ harvesting. As the trafficking routes became more difficult, the flow diminished, although it never stopped completely. With this change, the organization began to see a wide range of needs emerge as those trafficked realized that Malaysia was not the benign, welcoming environment they had expected it to be. Nor was it just a way-station on the journey to relocation in a more developed country. In reality, Malaysia is likely to be their home for an extended period, if not indefinitely. With approximately 200,000 refugees in Malaysia, 20,000 of them in Penang state, a wide spectrum of needs emerged. These included health, security, income generation, education and social challenges faced by refugees. This resulted in the expansion of the organization's focus, as it responded to the most critical needs as defined by the refugees themselves. While the activities and services have multiplied over the years, the Mission of the organization has remained the same: to empower refugees to re-establish a sense of hope for the future and to rebuild individual, family and community support systems that promote independence and resiliency. Although the organization is registered with the Malaysian government under the name "Persatuan Komuniti Berdikari" (Resilient Community Association), it was more commonly known as Penang Stop Human Trafficking Campaign. As time evolved and the needs served broadened, the name ASPIRE Penang was adopted for general use.
