Asia and Japan held deep significance to Senator John McCain and his family, many of whom served there. The McCain family, along with the Institute, understands that Japan is critical to maintaining global security and democracy. As common challenges increase in complexity, the need for more connectivity among Japanese and U.S. decisionmakers becomes more urgent. The McCain Institute is proud to bring its convening power to Tokyo—an epicenter of strategic importance—as we honor the Senator’s legacy by launching the first international edition of the Sedona Forum.
