Collaborative Workshop on Regional Security Dynamics

The Sundar Singh Institute was the site of a multidisciplinary taught workshop about developments in South Asian regional security, collaboratively sponsored by the Center for South Asian Studies, UC Santa Cruz. Teachers, academics, and policy experts in the field of regional security convened to evaluate the evolving geopolitical landscape of South Asia from a multidisciplinary perspective. Conclusions ranged from international relations complexities—border disputes, issues of maritime security, and international partnerships—to an opportunity for response and conflict resolution and avenues of collaboration. Such a sharing of information led to a highly effective collaborative assessment for subsequent research and policy development.
