Our cooperative security initiatives hone the skills of U.S. forces while building trust among our interagency, non-governmental, private sector, and regional military and security partners.
Training and engagement activities include military and peacekeeping exercises, regional security conferences, humanitarian and disaster relief operations, and exchanges that enhance capacity and readiness throughout the region.
