Delegates from the security agencies of a raft of Pacific nations, territories, and regional bodies came together with Australian security officials for the second Joint Heads of Pacific Security event on Nov. 5.
The strategic-level discussion, part of Australia’s Pacific Step-up policy, was held virtually and was attended by 24 Pacific nations and territories—including Japan and the United States for the first time—as well as 5 regional bodies. The discussion focused on security challenges and cooperation efforts to build resilience for the future.
