Quad’s Objectives

The Quad nations primarily focus on the stability and prosperity of the Indo-Pacific region. According to the Australian government’s website, Quad is “committed to supporting an open, stable, and prosperous Indo-Pacific region that is inclusive and resilient.”

“Quad’s positive and practical agenda is focused on delivering results for the region, addressing the most pressing challenges, including health security, climate change, infrastructure, critical and emerging technologies, cyber security, humanitarian assistance, disaster relief, maritime security, and countering disinformation and terrorism.”

Quad’s Origin

Quad originated in December 2004 in response to the tsunami in the Indian Ocean. The four countries came together to provide humanitarian and disaster relief to the affected areas. It was formalized in 2007 by then-Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. The group’s first meeting took place in 2007 on the sidelines of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) summit.
