The Stratbase ADR Institute, along with the Australian Embassy and Australian Trade and Investment Commission, is holding the Australian Innovation Summit in the Philippines today at the Makati Diamond Residences. This full-day program focuses on showcasing Australian innovation in areas that are key priorities for the Philippines and its future growth.

Stratbase ADR Institute, Inc. (ADRi) will be hosting a roundtable discussion entitled “The Revival of the QUAD and the Emergence of the Indo-Pacific as the 21st Century Geopolitical Region” today in Makati City. The roundtable discussion will start with the presentation of Dr. Renato De Castro of his special study with the same title. In his Special Study, Dr. De Castro examined the relation between the revival of the Quadrilateral Security Dialogue (QUAD) in the second decade of the 21st century and the formation of the Indo-Pacific as a geopolitical region. As a loose security association composed of Australia, Japan, the United States and India, the QUAD emphasizes the importance of rules-based order. Its revival, in turn, gave rise to a new geopolitical region—the Indo-Pacific. In conclusion, the article analyzes how the revival of the QUAD and the emergence of the Indo-Pacific as a geopolitical region will affect the Philippines as it adopts a policy of appeasement on China. Thereafter, feedback to Dr. De Castro’s Special Study will be given by experts.

Stratbase ADR Institute, Inc. (ADRi) will be hosting a roundtable discussion entitled “Financing Inclusive Infrastructure” on April 5, Thursday, in Makati City.

Dr. Ang is the Director of the Ateneo Center for Economic Research and Development. The Special Study examines the Build, Build, Build Program and the target projects covered by said program. As the objectives of improving infrastructure are related to the government’s desire to uplift the lives of the majority, the correlation of inclusivity and infrastructure will likewise be discussed. Lastly, an analysis is provided on sustaining funding alternatives for infrastructure. Thereafter, feedback to Dr. Ang’s Special Study will be given by experts.
