Caught in the vortex of geopolitical conflicts, security-vulnerable democracies seeking to safeguard their national sovereignty and strategic autonomy must make a qualitative transition from traditional, siloed defense models toward dynamic, multi-layered, and institutionalized national resilience systems.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"cvGsUA block-font-kerning-none block-font-feature-liga-off block-font-feature-clig-off block-font-feature-calt-off direction-ltr align-start\"><span class=\"a_GcMg font-feature-liga-off font-feature-clig-off font-feature-calt-off text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\">In response to this urgent imperative, the Women &amp; Global Security Architecture (WGSA) think tank will host the annual <strong><span style=\"color: #008080;\">Comprehensive Security &amp; Resilience International Conference \u2014 2026<\/span><\/strong> on September 17\u201318 in Yerevan.

Synthesizing international best practices, comprehensive resilience frameworks, and the specificities of Armenia&#8217;s security landscape, this leading platform focuses on practical security solutions tested under real-world crisis conditions, while simultaneously driving the search for and development of innovative, forward-looking solutions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"cvGsUA block-font-kerning-none block-font-feature-liga-off block-font-feature-clig-off block-font-feature-calt-off direction-ltr align-start\"><span class=\"a_GcMg font-feature-liga-off font-feature-clig-off font-feature-calt-off text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\">The conference features a structured, tiered agenda that progresses from high-level political vision to operational and sectoral solutions. The &#8216;Fireside Chats&#8217; series explores critical dimensions of the security ecosystem, covering internal security and civil defense, the adaptation of international best practices, legal bases and parliamentary oversight, alongside economic diplomacy and foreign policy realignment. Thematic panel discussions will focus on countering hybrid threats, operationalizing whole-of-government and whole-of-society approaches, advancing the military dimension of comprehensive security and tactical sovereignty, and navigating the long-term Armenia\u2013EU agenda, its achievements, opportunities, and challenges.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"cvGsUA block-font-kerning-none block-font-feature-liga-off block-font-feature-clig-off block-font-feature-calt-off direction-ltr align-start\"><span class=\"a_GcMg font-feature-liga-off font-feature-clig-off font-feature-calt-off text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\">The outcomes of the conference will be consolidated into a policy paper, establishing a practical framework to reinforce national resilience across government, diplomatic, and public spheres.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text woodmart_inline=&#8221;no&#8221;
