SORU:

What is the definition of human security?


CEVAP:

Human security is defined by the UN General Assembly (Resolution 66/290) as “an approach to assist member states in identifying and addressing widespread and cross-cutting challenges to the survival, livelihood and dignity of their people” (www.un.org)

The UNDP introduced the concept ‘human security’ in its 1994 Human Development Report. Before 1994, the concept of security had been interpreted in a narrow sense
that defined state security from the perspective of external aggression and national interests. The 1994 Report defines security in a broader sense and identifies threats to human security under seven categories: economic security, food security, health security, environmental security, personal security, community security, and political security.
