During the gathering, younger leaders between the ages of 18-30 were inspired by the Great Commission, heard fresh ideas for missions, and took the next step to go where there currently was no gospel. There were also incredible ways to interact with others who were passionate about their faith in God.

Participants could expect to learn from experienced global missions practitioners from across Asia, with plenty of opportunities to ask questions from speakers, plus evening cafés to connect with each other. The program maximised participant engagement through innovative lab sessions. Seminars addressed critical missions issues in the world, including how to prepare to go into missions, internship opportunities, the persecuted church, discipleship, spiritual and mental health, church planting, unreached people groups, international development, business as mission, justice issues, and more.

Arise Asia was co-hosted by: Asia Evangelical Alliance, Asia Theological Alliance, Asian Access, CCCOWE, Evangelical Fellowship of Thailand, Lausanne Movement in Asia, and Movement Day
