Trilateral Health Collaboration: Opportunities for the US and Japan in Southeast Asia from East-West Center on Vimeo.
Science diplomacy is an innovative way of promoting partnership and capacity building throughout the world. Greater investment in international medical research in Southeast Asia would strengthen US soft power in the region through people-to-
people relations. The US-Japan alliance provides a strong platform for joint global health initiatives to work with Southeast Asian scientists on regional health threats. US engagement with Southeast Asia on health is currently spread across several government agencies, without a coherent regional strategy. Learning from the Japanese approach to health science diplomacy and collaborating further with Japanese institutions would be mutually beneficial for Japan, the US, and Southeast Asia.
This seminar was part of a series tied to the U.S.-Japan-Southeast Asia in a Dynamic Asia Fellowship program jointly organized and sponsored by the East West Center and Osaka University’s Osaka School of International Public Policy (OSIPP). Generously funded by The Japan Foundation and US Embassy Tokyo, this fellowship has brought together two American, two Japanese, and two Southeast Asian fellows for three months to explore the following theme: How should the United States, Japan, and Southeast Asia collaborate on trade, investment, and economic integration in Southeast Asia?
