Shaping Tomorrow’s Security Assistance Landscape

Presented by the Office of the Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Army for Defense Exports and Cooperation (DASA (DEC)) and AUVSI, the Army Worldwide Security Assistance Conference (AWSAC) brought together members of the Army Security Assistance Enterprise (ASAE), Department of Defense (DoD), Department of State (DoS), and U.S. defense industry.

Continuous transformation ensures U.S. and global defenses are adaptable, flexible, trained, and ready to maneuver in a multi-domain operating environment. Collaboration with industry played a crucial role in building partner capacity, delivering on promises, and shaping the future of security assistance during the event.
