Prime Minister Julia Gillard is set to launch the Asian Century white paper today.

Prime Minister Julia Gillard will launch the government's long-awaited Asian Century white paper in Sydney today.

The paper, which runs for more than 300 pages, is the work of an advisory panel set up last year and led by former Treasury boss Dr Ken Henry.

Ms Gillard has said it will be blueprint to lift Australia's engagement with Asia and identify opportunities for government and business.

Dr Henry told a conference last month the paper would cover a broad range of issues including education, language skills, technology and security in the fastest growing region on the planet.
