Human security is an emerging paradigm for understanding global vulnerabilities whose proponents challenge the traditional notion of national security by arguing that the proper referent for security should be the individual rather than the state. Human security holds that a people-centered view of security is necessary for national, regional & global stability. At a minimum human security means freedom from violence & from the fear of violence.

The term ‘Human security’ was first popularized by the United National Development Programme (UNDP) in the early 1990s. ‘Human security’ as defined in the UNDP report consisted of 7 components & dimensions: economic, food, health, environmental, personal, community & political. The main contribution of the UNDP’s conception of human security was focusing on people & highlighting of vulnerability to threats other than violence. It saw security as an “integrative” rather than “defensive concept”. It emphasized that human security has a geographical & even international dimension.

The concept of human security emerged from the post-cold war era as a link various humanitarian, economic & social issue in order to alleviate human suffering & assure security. On closer review, threats to human security are characterized as being both the cause & the result of processes of disintegration of society & of state institutions
