The Indian Ocean Conference was started in 2016 at
Singapore, with participation from 30 countries. In the last
six years, the Conference has emerged as the flagship
consultative forum for countries in the region over regional
affairs.
The India Ideas Conclave is
India Foundation’s flagship event that brings together a
luminary gathering of policy makers and public intellectuals
from India and abroad.
Dharma Dhamma Conference is an
initiative of India Foundation, aimed to focus on the
essential identity between the Dharma-Dhamma viewpoints
because these thoughts are as relevant today as they have
been over millennia exemplified by the abiding continuum of
Hindu and Buddhist Civilizations.
India and ASEAN have emerged
as rising Asian powers in the new millennium with
fast-growing new economies. Their formidable demographic
dividend and a population commanding a considerably high
purchasing power have given to this region an immense
potential for growth-centric mutual cooperation.
