Abstract
On 23 and 24 November 2022, the University of Adelaide Stretton Institute and the Australian National University (ANU) Department of Pacific Affairs cohosted the Security Cooperation in the Pacific Islands workshop in Canberra. One hundred representatives from academia, civil society and the governments of Australia, New Zealand, the United States (US), Japan, Samoa and several European states attended. The workshop was the culmination of our three-year Australian Department of Defence Strategic Policy Grant project that analysed how Pacific security cooperation can best be orientated to address current and future regional security challenges. This paper summarises the discussion from the workshop.
