The theme for this year’s inaugural conference on Safety and
Security Research and Education is “Exploring a Regional Cooperation
Framework.”
A conference co-hosted by the Pacific Rim Visualization and

Research (INSER) will be held on the UW campus October 30th to November 1st,
2008. We are pleased to have the support of the Jackson School of International

Homeland Security and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence.
