Join The Journey

For more than a hundred years, AIA has made significant effort in positively impacting the lives of customers and communities across Asia. To continue the strive for healthier, longer, better lives AIA is starting a movement that reinforces our Purpose, with the AIA One Billion initiative.

Reinstating our Brand Purpose to helping people lead healthier lives, our ambition is to engage and influence a billion people by 2030. Our mission is to bring our Purpose to life by translating it into reality, working together to create a more sustainable future for everyone. We are excited to make progress towards a greener and healthier future. We want to invite you to join us in this journey towards Healthier, Longer, Better Lives.

Why has AIA set this goal?

With growth in wealth and affluence in Asian populations, lifestyle-related diseases have concurrently increased. At the same time, through research, it has been identified that environmental factors has played a significant role in the rise of these diseases. Furthermore, Asia is particularly affected by climate change. This critical situation directly impacts public's health around the world, especially in Asia where AIA operates.

By joining the AIA One Billion journey and taking action today, together we can influence people to embrace healthier lifestyles and securely progress towards a healthier planet. Through partnerships, events, community programs and campaigns, we will educate, inspire and support our communities. Improving people's physical, mental and environmental wellness.

Through the AIA One Billion initiative, we will strive to improve
