    As/of 7 September 2019 In support USNORTHERN Command’s Arctic Security and Defense Mission Alaskan Command hosts Arctic Sympos ium 2019 (AAS19) Advancing Strategic Partners in Securing America’s Arctic Interests. Updated Draft Agenda 1 University of Alaska Fairbanks AAS 2019...Advancing Strategic Partners in Securing America’s Arctic Interests 13-15 November 2019 Introduction. In support of United States Northern Command (USNORTHCOM), Alaskan Command (ALCOM) is hosting a 3 day Arctic Symposium from 13-15 November 2019 at the University of Alaska Fairbanks. The overarching goal of this Arctic Symposium is to support USNORTHCOM’s Arctic mission, through convening a wide array of leaders and experts, very near the Arctic, during a time of year when the environment provides a solid reminder of the challenges faced in this austere and strategically vital region. Accordingly, in support of USNORTHCOM’s Arctic missions and associated tasks and requirements established in the U.S. Presidentially approved Unified Command Plan, ALCOM’s Arctic Symposium 2019 (AAS19) is planned as a composite and complex event. AAS2109 includes multiple plenary sessions, breakout group electives and follow-on field activities, principally focused to advance greater understanding, improved networks and more effective approaches in discerning and developing solutions to address current and emerging concerns to U.S. national interests in the Arctic region. AAS19 provides ALCOM’s senior command, USNORTHCOM, an opportunity to gain convergence in shared understanding and improved unity of effort from across policy and practices via a new and developing network of defense and security-minded professionals. Such convergence practically is gained by framing discussions from a cross agency and multi-disciplined approach to advance measures to deter, dissuade potential adversaries, while also protecting, securing and defending America’s citizens, U.S.
