Impacting health, the environment and global governance. The challenges of taking a security approach.
Practical information
Through the bringing together of experts from the health and the environment field, "Impacting health, the environment and global governance. The challenges of taking a security approach." will stimulate a high level and interdisciplinary debate on the potential impacts of thinking of health and environmental issues as security issues.
The ‘securitization" process, by which an issue comes to be perceived as a security issue, of health and environmental issues will be put into perspective, and the potential impacts of this process on global governance structures and on the issues themselves will be debated, drawing on historical and practical case studies. Insights and recommendations on how to manage the securitization process more effectively should emerge from this process.
Seminar in English. By invitation only.
