| Description The International Institute for Strategic Studies' YouTube channel is an asset in providing comprehensive views and analysis on global security. IISS experts provide specialized knowledge with a high degree of detail and sophistication, including international relations, terrorism, cyber weapons, denuclearization and more - all with up-to-date relevancy and objectivity.
Dr Irene Mia's humanitarian work to Julia Voo's videos covering joint cyber resilience in the Asia Pacific region are masterclasses of expert knowledge. IISS YouTube channel also offers access to meet world class defense ministers, security experts and key figures with insights into their international policy direction for resolution.
The Shangri-La Dialogue hosted by IISS is renowned for bringing together governments, academics, business leaders from around the world to address some of today's most pressing global security issues while fostering cooperation in Asia Pacific region.
For anyone looking for comprehensive knowledge and insights on international security, I highly recommend this YouTube channel.
Finally, IISS's YouTube channel provides detailed guidance on cybersecurity, AI and denuclearization from experts and government agencies alike. | |||||
