On June 28-29, the European Union Delegation to the United States and the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) convened the 2021 EU Defense Washington Forum, an annual symposium dedicated to strengthening EU-U.S. cooperation on security and defense.

Now in its 10th year, the EU Defense Washington Forum brought together leading stakeholders and experts from the transatlantic security, defense and diplomatic communities for a timely analysis of critical issues, such as security implications of climate change including in the Arctic; strategic competition with China and Russia; emerging and disruptive technologies; security challenges and responses relating to Africa; and hybrid threats.

The first such forum since the start of the Biden Administration, this year’s Defense Forum focused on developing a shared analysis of the threat environment, and of the military and societal capabilities required to improve our collective and individual responses.

Panels, speakers, and registration information can be found on the CSIS website.
