For many communities across the Pacific, 2026 Rim of the Pacific (RIMPAC) military exercises scheduled for 24 June – 31 July represent a continued expansion of militarization in the region. These large-scale war exercises heighten regional tensions, increase the risk of conflict, and divert resources away from addressing the urgent social, economic, and environmental challenges facing the region.
OPENING: Sharon Bhagwan Rolls, Fiji | Fiji Island feminist and peacebuilder whose work sits at the intersection of gender, media, communications, climate justice and peacebuilding.

- DJ Janier, Philippines | Stop the War Coalition
