How the Asia-Pacific Perceives Strategic Risks: Implications for Policy Coordination

In a region rife with strategic risk, policymakers in the Asia-Pacific generally agree on two areas of growing concern: the Taiwan Strait and the Korean Peninsula. Despite this agreement, countries in the region view these risks through their own policy lens and do not always align on how severe these risks are, much less how to approach them.
Join APLN and the European Leadership Network for the launch of a new report exploring how Australia, Japan, South Korea, and the UK perceive strategic risks in the Asia-Pacific: where they overlap, where they diverge, and how to coordinate policy approaches among these stakeholders. The event will include a presentation on the report and its policy recommendations, followed by a discussion with a panel of experts. The report is forthcoming.
