Interesting new report from Rethinking Security CTPSR, which demonstrates the need to build a more nuanced understanding of citizen preferences over #security. Suggests a more holistic & sustainable understanding of risks, threats and security is available.

Letting people from all backgrounds, groups & identities across UK define what security means to them should be central to any future review of UK national or human security. We hope methodologies like this will help policy-makers to pursue genuinely inclusive consultation. 5/6

What does security mean to the British public? This recent study by Rethinking Security shows that they largely think about it in human, not military terms. Read the full report here: rethinkingsecurity.org.uk/reports-briefi…

The journal International Peacekeeping invites proposals for a special issue. We welcome proposals featuring innovative research that contribute to the understanding and advancement of conflict management practices.

A fantastic seminar with two brilliant speakers. many thanks Fred Carver and Camille Bayet. Great interventions and questions from the packed (virtual room) as well.

A real pleasure to chair this discussion. Much to think about with the New Agenda for Peace and Summit for the Future. questions about what NA4P is 'for', what tangible benefits NA4P will bring, and the extent to which it reflects the world or shapes the future..
