The iSchools Asia-Pacific Future Information Leaders Network (AP-FIL network) was launched in December 2024 by the Asia-Pacific regional iSchools in conjunction with the iSchools Board. The purpose of this AP-iSchools community is to help students build their own network for international collaborations and promote activities of member schools for future generations to lead the information field. It aims to foster a collaborative environment among students from AP-iSchools, enabling them to engage in various activities and events that enhance their cross-cultural communication, collaboration, and cooperation skills in the information field.

​

The AP-FIL network is currently co-advised by Prof. Tina Du, Prof. Chei Sian Lee, Prof. Di Wang, Prof. Lihong Zhou, and Prof. Atsuyuki Morishima. The AP-FIL Network Committee now includes 21 members nominated by 13 member schools. Ms. Wei Feng from Nanyang Technological University and Mr. Md Shofiqul Islam from Charles Sturt University are the current co-chairs, while Ms. Lu Cui from Renmin University of China and Ms. Yunyi Xiao from University of Tsukuba are the chairs-elect for next term.
