EMC Chair Symposium - Sea Control and Foreign Policy - Working Papers
The U.S. Naval War College
This fifth maritime-centric EMC Chair symposium builds on the 2016 release of Design for Maintaining Maritime Superiority, which noted the “U.S. Navy has been a cornerstone of American security and prosperity.” The symposium will consider future directions of U.S. foreign policy and reflect on demands the country places on the Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard to advance and defend national interests. Participants from DOD, academia, and the policy community will convene in Newport to discuss the implications for sea power as the Design challenges the Navy to “Deepen operational relationships with other services, agencies, industry, allies and partners – who operate with the Navy to support our shared interests.” Participants will consider the impact of technology, contested seas, and maritime partnerships on sea control.

EMC Chair Symposium - Civilian-Military Humanitarian Response Workshop - Working Papers
The U.S. Naval War College
This humanitarian-focused event is designed to help the United States Navy, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, and international maritime forces, as well as the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (UN OCHA), humanitarian organizations, and academia collaboratively develop robust research, professional education, training, and development agendas. Each of these entities plays a vital role in helping to improve civilian-military coordination during humanitarian responses.

EMC Chair Symposium - Maritime Strategy - Working Papers
The U.S. Naval War College
This third maritime centric EMC Chair Symposium is a follow up to the release of the 2015 “Cooperative Strategy for 21st century Seapower.” The symposium will explore maritime strategy, concepts essential to implement the maritime strategy, and international reactions to it. Participants from DOD, academia, and the policy community will convene in Newport to discuss force development, maritime warfare, role of technology, and humanitarian assistance. The implications are important for understanding the types of missions combatant commanders will execute and the types of equipment and training the sea services must provide to support these missions. This symposium in part fulfills the mission of the EMC Chair to support the Navy’s efforts to develop thinking about maritime security.
