The Asia-Pacific Hub is led by a small coordinating team and a growing group of country co-leads. Country co-leads provide local legitimacy and coordination, support stakeholder mapping, and help adapt Hub activities to their national context.

The GO-GN Asia-Pacific Hub operates through a network of partners and supporting organisations. These include the global GO-GN network, the Hub's funder and coordinating institutions, country host partners, and the wider ecosystem of institutions that have participated in Hub events.

The Global Open Graduate Network (GO-GN) is a network of PhD candidates around the world whose research projects include a focus on open education (i.e. OER, OEP, MOOC). These doctoral researchers are at the core of the network; around them, over two hundred experts, supervisors, mentors and interested parties connect to form a community of practice.
