It was founded following the Asia-Africa Initiative launched in 2006 at the Asian Institute of Technology (AIT), in cooperation with the United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (UN ESCAP). The Foundation draws its inspiration from the 2005 Declaration of Heads of State and Government at the 50th anniversary of the Bandung Conference, which called for the strengthening of Asia-Africa cooperation through the New Asian-African Strategic Partnership (NAASP).
ASAFO envisions a future where Asia and Africa stand united through strong partnerships that harness their collective potential.
