A UK and Canada Panel Discussion

Presented by the School of Public Policy and Global Affairs at UBC and the British Consulate-General in Vancouver

On the occasion of the visit of UK Minister for the Americas and Caribbean, David Rutley MP, UBC’s School of Public Policy and Global Affairs and the British Consulate-General in Vancouver invite you to a UK and Canada panel discussion on the challenges and opportunities of the Indo-Pacific. Joining Minister Rutley on the panel will be SPPGA Professor and Acting Director of the Institute of Asian Research Timothy Cheek, SPPGA and Forest Resources Management Assistant Professor Juliet Lu, and President and CEO of the Asia Pacific Foundation Jeff Nankivell. Panel discussion moderated by British Consul General Thomas Codrington.

Given Canada’s recently launched Indo-Pacific Strategy, and the Indo-Pacific’s important role in UK foreign policy, this panel will help answer the question of the global significance of a peaceful and prosperous Indo-Pacific and why it matters to the UK and Canada.

Join us for some light refreshments and a panel discussion at UBC’s Liu Institute for Global Issues (6476 NW Marine Dr, UBC). The event is held under Chatham House Rule.
