Considering new contributions to the Pacific Resilience Fund, is the global community doing enough to support Pacific Island countries?   How has the Falepili Union between Australia and Tuvalu been received more broadly across the region?  Will it be replicated?   How does the Pacific Policing Initiative fit within the Pacific approach to collective security?  How can the Pacific balance the pros and cons of the PALM scheme?   In this episode, Maima Koro, Henritta McNeil and Joel Nilon join Bianca Birdsall to reflect on the 2024 Pacific Islands Forum, including the Pacific Resilience Fund, Pacific Policing Initiative, and the role of dialogue partners.   Maualaivao Maima Koro is the Pacific Research Fellow and academic co-lead of the Regional Perspectives collaboration between Adelaide University and the Defence Science and Technology Group.  Dr Henrietta McNeill is a Research Fellow on Pacific security, geopolitics and regionalism at the ANU Department of Pacific Affairs.  Joel Nilon is a Pacific Fellow at the ANU Pacific Security College.   Show notes:   ANU academic programs – find out more  Pacific Policing Initiative Power and Influence in the Pacific Islands – co-authored by Henrietta McNeill   We’d love to hear from you!
