Abstract

Human Security may mean “the right of all people to live in freedom and dignity, free from poverty and despair and all individuals, in particular vulnerable people, are entitled to freedom from fear and freedom from want, with an equal opportunity to enjoy all their rights and fully develop their human potential” ). HS is at great risk in modern times. It may look outwardly that external wars and cause insecurity to the people; but a deeper study on the socio-economic and environmental conditions of the people prove that they cause more danger and insecurity not only to the people but to the nation itself.. Human security brings together the ‘human elements’ of security, rights and development. It is mainly people centred. Millions of people are threatened by poverty, climate-related disasters, organised crime, human trafficking, health hazards and sudden economic depression and financial downturns. There are different types of HS and the threats and solutions.
