Jesuit Educational Association of South Asia (JEASA) was constituted in 1961 by the Jesuit Conference of South Asia (JCSA) with the aim of providing Jesuits with a forum of reflection on the educational apostolate of the Society in the context of changing conditions in the region. All Jesuit educational institutions in South Asia are members of the JEASA. JEASA was established to provide strategic oversight and governance of the educational ministry of JCSA. The most important aspect of its responsibility is the implementation of and ongoing adherence to the governing policies and procedures of the Provinces/Regions under the Conference relating to the operations of the schools in South Asia. The operational principles of JEASA prioritise effective resource allocation and process design by actively involving and engaging those who are closest to where the decisions will have the most significant impact. Hence, JEASA undertakes all decisions and develop policies and processes that promote and ensure collaboration, shared stewardship and excellence in every aspect of the ministry's education apostolate.
