The 2018 edition of Raisina Dialogue was held in New
Delhi with the theme “Managing Disruptive Transitions: Ideas, Institutions
& Idioms”.
About the Raisina Dialogue:
This is an annual geo-political event, organised by the
Ministry of External Affairs and Observer Research Foundation (ORF). It is
designed to explore prospects and opportunities for Asian integration as well
as Asia’s integration with the larger world. It is predicated on India’s vital
role in the Indian Ocean Region and how India along with its partners can build
a stable regional and world order.
Participants: The conference is a multistakeholder,
cross-sectoral meeting involving policy and decision-makers, including but not
limited to Foreign, Defence and Finance Ministers of different countries,
high-level government officials and policy practitioners, leading personalities
from business and industry, and members of the strategic community, media and
academia.
Significance of the event: The Raisina
Dialogue was born two years ago, in 2016, in the belief that the Asian century
that the world was talking about was not about any exclusive geographical
region. It was rather about the engagement of global actors with Asia and of
Asia with the world. So this dialogue took birth as a platform, where the old
and the new could work together, to discover their connections, their
inter-dependence. It has today become a crucible for conversations and ideas
that while located in India can be owned by the world.
