Date:

What is the Security Jam? A virtual conference featuring online keynote contributions from world leaders and participants like you logging on from around the world. NGOs, civil society, security & defence practitioners, leading political and military figures, think tanks, academics and journalists will interact online, from anywhere in the world, to build concrete solutions together.
