The 6th Taiwan-Nordic Forum, titled ‘Resilience as Defense,’ was convened on April 15, 2026, in Stockholm. The forum, organized by the Stockholm Taiwan Center of the Institute for Security and Development Policy, served as a platform for Nordic, Baltic, and Taiwanese experts and scholars to discuss emerging common defense challenges linked to gray-zone tactics in Taiwan, the Nordic, and the Baltic regions. It was the first time the forum extended its scope to Baltic states, marking an important step towards deepening cooperation and promoting knowledge exchange, elements that constitute the cornerstone of strengthened national and international resilience.
