ARCHIVES of ASEXUAL LANDSCAPE IN PAN ASIA
Since 2020, this initiative has collected, preserved, and celebrated asexual and A-Spec queer histories across Asia. The goal is to highlight asexual issues in Asian countries through a growing repository of primary sources, photographic documentation, videos, and more, gathered from collaborations with artists, researchers, and writers. The “Asexual Landscape in Pan Asia” archive aims to share personal stories and experiences of asexual individuals, raising awareness about their unique challenges and fostering understanding. ANOAQA is dedicated to combating ‘A’ phobia affecting Asian asexual, aromantic, and agender communities, ultimately striving for a safer and more inclusive society for all.

The fourth symposium delved even deeper into the less-discussed facets of asexual identity with the theme “‘A’ phobia is an overlooked struggle of A-spec queer.” This symposium spotlighted the nuanced challenges faced by asexual, aromantic, and agender individuals, fostering empathy and understanding within the broader LGBTQ+ community.
Lessons from History
The third symposium hosted a unique campaign alongside the main event. It drew attention to the fact that the high-profile IDAHOBIT movement was rarely or never inclusive of the A-spec community. This initiative aimed to raise awareness and gather global support for renaming IDAHOBIT to make it more inclusive
