The speakers presented on maritime security threats in the Indian Ocean region, Sri Lanka’s post-war reconciliation efforts, and on Bangladesh’s management of the insurgency in the Chittagong Hill Tracts region, following the signing of the Chittagong Hill Tracts Peace Accords.

The discussions following the presentations focused on possible avenues for cooperating on maritime security issues, as well as on the involvement of civil society in Sri Lanka’s reconciliation process.
