Join us for the conference “The Free and Open Indo-Pacific: Japan’s Strategic Vision Goes Global”, on March 11th and 12th at the Nissan Institute of Japanese Studies, St Antony’s College.

In a rapidly evolving global landscape, the Indo-Pacific region emerges as a pivotal arena of economic power and geopolitical intrigue. The Free and Open Indo-Pacific initiative, championed by Japan and increasingly recognised by global powers, encapsulates this dynamic shift. With the region accounting for a staggering 60% of global GDP and becoming a crucible of major power rivalries, notably between the US and China, the initiative’s relevance cannot be overstated.

This two-day conference, organised by the Nissan Institute of Japanese Studies, promises to unravel these complexities. Featuring a lineup of distinguished speakers, this event is poised to offer new insights into the economic, political, and security challenges reshaping our world. Join us for an indispensable opportunity for anyone who wishes to understand and influence the future of international relations in this critical geopolitical theatre.
