Register: Zoom Webinar
Japan has long played a central role in the Indo-Pacific security architecture, both through its alliance with the United States and through its own political, economic and security initiatives in Northeast and Southeast Asia. In the last decade, these initiatives have become more forward-looking, encompassing Japan’s own vision of a free and open Indo-Pacific (FOIP). Japan has also played an increasingly important role in addressing problems in the global commons, from development to climate change and global public health. Join Consul General Kenko Sone for a discussion of the economic, political, and security challenges that lie ahead.
