Abstract: This study is anchored on the 21st Century Skills Framework of the Association of South East Asian Nation University Network (AUN). AUN has been an advocate of the 21st century education movement from its inception and visions to empower education leaders to move forward in their own practice. Two decades ago, AUN helped established the Partnership for 21st Century Skills (P21) highlighting 18 different skills. However, over the years, it became clear that the framework was too long and complicated. To resolve this issue, leaders of different specializations were interviewed to determine which of the 21st century skills were the most important.

Keywords: collaboration, communication, critical thinking, and creativity.
