During the symposium, air chiefs and senior leaders from more than 20 countries will work together to improve the integration of air power by strengthening partnerships for a free and open Indo-Pacific. 

“PACS26 is a tremendous opportunity to collectively align our efforts and strengthen the cooperation and interoperability with our allies and partners,” said U.S. Air Force Gen. Kevin Schneider, Pacific Air Forces commander. “The security challenges in the Indo-Pacific are complex, and it is essential that we work together to enhance regional security and stability.” 

The week will include discussions, panels, and bilateral and multilateral engagements addressing shared challenges, regional security, and how to collectively apply global lessons for security and stability within the region.
