Human Security Report
The Human Security Report (and associated Human Security Brief series) is inspired by the UN’s Human Development Report. The Reports and Briefs provide information and analyses on global and regional trends in armed conflict and other forms of organized violence. They draw on the most recent scholarly research, focus on people rather than states, and are intended to be accessible to non-specialists.
