Pacific Peace and Security Dialogue
The Pacific Peace and Security Dialogue (PPSD) brings together key security actors from across the Pacific to tackle the polycrisis before the region.
Formerly the Pacific Regional and National Security Conference (PRNSC), the event unites political representatives, regional and national officials, and academic, business and civil society representatives to share their wisdom and perspectives.
The Dialogue supports a collaborative, Pacific-led approach to promoting security, aligned with the region’s vision for a secure and resilient Pacific by 2050.
The program features panels, keynote speeches and discussions on a wide range of issues, reflecting the priorities outlined in the Boe Declaration on Regional Security. Sessions capture the diverse and interconnected nature of regional security challenges, including climate change, human security, transnational crime, protecting maritime and environmental resources, cyber security, and geopolitics. The Dialogue also includes a futures exercise on the pathway to 2050.
The event is held annually at the Pacific Islands Forum Secretariat in Suva, Fiji. The 2025 conference was presented by 11 organisations, including the Pacific Security College. It brought together more than 150 delegates, including political representatives, regional officials, civil society leaders, academics, and representatives from Forum Dialogue Partners.
