The South and Southeast Asian University Network, also known as S&SE Asian UN, is a higher education regional international cooperation mechanism approved by the Yunnan Provincial Department of Education and filed in the International Division of the Ministry of Education, and initiated by Yunnan University (YNU) in Kunming, Yunnan Province in December 2018. The Secretariat of S&SE Asian UN is permanently located at YNU.

It aims to further enhance the people-to-people bonds between China and South Asian and Southeast Asian countries, establish a platform for regional higher education exchanges and cooperation, as well as build a regional higher education community.
