Definition(s)
- The human security discourse dates back to the Human Development Report 1994, published by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), subtitled New Dimensions of Human Security. The catchphrase definition has become “freedom from fear and freedom from want.” In 2003, the Commission on Human Security (initiated by the Japanese government, and working closely with the UN) formulated the following main characteristics, published in 2003 by Sadako Ogata, Amartya Sen, and others as Human Security Now: Human security complements state security, enhances human rights and strengthens human development.
