Southeast Asia
The Institute for Security & Development Policy (ISDP) has a growing interest in Southeast Asia in regards to development and security related issues, policy and research. The region entails a highly complex political environment, home to high rates of economic development, significant inequality and critical security challenges, amongst others. Located at the intersection of strategic geographies, what happens in the region directly affects global political and economic processes. In-depth research and understanding are required to identify the best policy approaches to these opportunities and challenges.
Since 2007, ISDP has deepened its ties with think tanks and research agencies across Southeast Asia. Through this network, ISDP seeks to enhance understanding of issues affecting Southeast Asia in Europe and Asia alike, through joint research and cooperation. Integral to ISDP’s work in relation to Southeast Asia is a focus on supporting peace and stability, and examination of non-traditional security challenges, including environmental issues and transboundary threats. ISDP seeks to contribute to collaborative, locally-owned solutions by working with local partners and institutions.
