Maritime Security: Confronting New & Non-Traditional Challenges in the Age of Austerity

On February 13, the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) hosted two panels of distinguished speakers on Maritime Security. The Commandant of the Coast Guard also gave a detailed keynote address detailing the status of the Coast Guard. 

Representatives from the US Coast Guard, the US Navy, and the National Security Council discussed the underlying strategy used to develop the 2013 Maritime Security budget.  The panels focused on:

• The Current and Future Strategic Maritime Environment 
• Identifying, Prioritizing, and Coordinating Necessary Maritime Capabilities

Video and audio versions of the panels are available from the CSIS website. Condensed, bulletized notes can be downloaded from www.NotableThinking.com. All notes are in PDF format.
