Explanation

The Forum for India-Pacific Islands Cooperation (FIPIC) was established as a strategic initiative to strengthen India's engagement with the Pacific Island nations. The inaugural summit of FIPIC was held on November 19, 2014, in Suva, Fiji [1]. This historic meeting was hosted by Prime Minister Narendra Modi during his first visit to the country, marking a significant shift in India's Act East policy toward the South Pacific [1]. The summit saw participation from 14 Pacific Island countries, including Tuvalu, Fiji, and Papua New Guinea [1]. Following this inaugural event, the second FIPIC summit was held in Jaipur, India, in 2015, and the third summit took place in Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea, in 2023 [1]. The forum focuses on cooperation in areas such as sustainable development, climate change, and trade [1].
