Reimagining the Indo-Pacific is brought to you by Kubernein Initiative in cooperation with the Policy Planning Division of the Federal Foreign Office of Germany. This limited podcast series is part of a joint project on exploring avenues to deepen Indo-German Cooperation in the Indo-Pacific, with an approach that is rooted in Germany’s Feminist Foreign Policy vision and India’s approach to inclusive policy-making.
Through the episodes, we bring diverse perspectives on aspects of emerging security challenges in the Indo-Pacific region. We explore themes including trade, climate change, digitalisation, multilateralism, and focus on opportunities for Germany and India to work together in safeguarding human security in the Indo-Pacific. We aim to reimagine the Indo-Pacific as we know it, and explore ways forward to shape more inclusive policies.
In the final episode of Reimagining the Indo-Pacific, Aditi Mukund speaks to Dr Mana Takahashi of Kanda University, Japan, Cathryn Clüver Ashbrook from the Bertelsmann Stiftung, Germany, and Ambika Vishwanath, co-founder of Kubernein Initiative. This episode explores the need to decolonise mainstream foreign policy discourse, and its relevance in the Indo-Pacific. Guests bring in perspectives from Japan, Germany, and India, and discuss how globalisation and diverse partnerships are reshaping traditional governance models to better reflect local interests and histories.
