Hemispheric Security

Hemispheric security refers to the collective efforts of countries within a specific geographic region—often the Western Hemisphere—to prevent and respond to threats like terrorism, drug trafficking, and organized crime. It involves cooperation among governments, intelligence agencies, and law enforcement to share information, coordinate actions, and strengthen defenses. The goal is to ensure stability, safety, and overall security across nations by addressing issues that can impact the entire region, recognizing that threats are interconnected and require collaborative strategies for effective management.
