Pacific Islands Maritime Security Workshop Report
From 03-05 November 2020, Pew Charitable Trusts hosted, via a virtual platform, the Pacific Islands Maritime Security Workshop with the support of the National Maritime Intelligence-Integration Office (NMIO). This workshop focused on developing implementable project concepts to address priority maritime challenges of the Republic of Palau and the Federated States of Micronesia (FSM). To build interest in project execution and promote follow-on commitments, workshop hosts and participants engaged in three days of facilitated collaboration with regional, maritime, and capabilities experts; followed by intensive peer review of working group concepts. The resulting nine project are captured in this report. They mitigate gaps in Palauan and Micronesian responses those nations identified as their most pressing maritime challenges—illegal, unreported, and unregulated (IUU) fishing; maritime trafficking; and non-cooperative marine scientific research (MSR) vessels.
