Specialist conference
Details
The effects of climate change on national security strategies and modes of operation for armed forces have hardly been
scrutinized adequately. New concepts have to be developed and transnational cooperation to be strengthened.
The workshop wants to contribute to an increased exchange of knowledge within the SAARC region.
Experts from Europe, the US and Australia will share the experience and debates from their home countries.
Among others, the following topics to be discussed with a special focus on resource security and climate change:
- the shifting geopolitical environment in South Asia and the need for revised national security concepts
- a revision of strategic and operational concepts for security forces
- the deepening of civil‐military cooperation to increase the effectiveness of disaster response management
- offering a platform for exchange between representatives from different continents and backgrounds
- promoting networks of think tanks and experts within Asia and with Europe, the US and Australia
- paving the way for further trans‐regional cooperation
- conceptualizing adaptation strategies for the security sector in South Asia
