Featuring an eminent panel of experts including Professor Shankari Sundararaman(Chair), Dr. George Cooke, Dr. Jagannath Panda, and Prof. Renato DeCastro, this roundtable delves into the interstate and regional dimensions of the various security challenges being faced by countries in the Indo-Pacific. The sharp rise in the intensity of geopolitical competition in the region, and the resulting growing strategic instability has impacted countries’ understanding of regional security, complicating their security imperatives and restricting their strategic choices. Against this backdrop, experts will discuss the multifaceted security challenges faced by countries in the region, their trans-regional dimensions and implications on cooperation and competition in the Indo-Pacific. Experts also explore pathways to improve and harmonise security governance and cooperation among stakeholders, both regional and extra-regional countries and reflect on the role multilateral institutions and regional organisations can play.
