WHO WE ARE

American Indo-Pacific Forum (AIPF) is a group focused on strengthening American Indo-Pacific Relationships in the background of QUAD-rilateral security dialogues and cooperative strategies in multiple spheres such as Security, Policy Management, Free and Open Indo-Pacific, etc. The US-India Security Council and Forum, which played a crucial role in historic US-Indian cooperative undertakings, gave rise to the American Indo-Pacific Forum. We are spread across the United States and have chapters in various states. As a group, we look forward to presenting the quickly evolving Indo-Pacific Theater and the challenges, solutions, and preparedness of the American Indo-Pacific Alliance in the Region.
