Human Security for an Urban Century: Local Challenges, Global Perspectives

Human Security for an Urban Century: Local Challenges, Global Perspectives is the most recent and comprehensive product developed by the humansecurity-cities.org partnership. It includes the work of 40 external contributors who share viewpoints and information from a broad variety of backgrounds and fields. The narrative text, jointly authored by DFAIT and CCHS, provides a snapshot of human security challenges and opportunities, with facts and analysis based on research and consultations conducted over the past year. Human Security for an Urban Century aims to take stock of what we have learned in the hope of devising a longer-term, strategic policy agenda for advancing human security in urban spaces.
