"La sécurité humaine dans un monde VUCA (VOLATILE, INCERTAIN, COMPLEXE, AMBIGU) : Relever les défis, renforcer la résilience"

À une époque caractérisée par des changements géopolitiques rapides, des disparités socio-économiques et des menaces sécuritaires en constante évolution, le concept de sécurité humaine est devenu une préoccupation majeure pour la stabilité et le bien-être de la planète. La conférence "Human Security in a VUCA World" vise à explorer les multiples dimensions de la sécurité humaine dans le paysage instable d'aujourd'hui, en abordant des questions urgentes telles que les conflits armés, le terrorisme, le changement climatique, les pandémies et les perturbations technologiques dans l'intérêt de l'établissement d'une paix durable et pérenne.

·        Evolving approaches to addressing human security challenges involve adapting strategies, policies, and interventions to respond effectively to changing global challenges. These include trends such as holistic and integrated approaches, as well as the safety of human centers. These responses include multilateral organizations, alliances, and diplomatic efforts crucial in addressing transnational threats that impact human security, using human rights-focused approaches and considering aspects such as environmental sustainability. These evolving approaches reflect a broader recognition that security goes beyond the absence of military threats and encompasses a range of factors that impact the well-being and dignity of individuals and communities. Adapting to these changes requires military and civilian organizations to be flexible, collaborate, and understand contemporary security challenges’ complex and interconnected nature.
