5:15-5:30pm Concluding Remarks
“……..The human security concept was first explored in the 1990’s and various understandings and definitions have been explored. Recently, the United Nations has begun debate on the topic and its popularity as an approach to security has been gaining notice. The approach calls for a view of security beyond just the prevention of violence and works to assure the three essential freedoms:
- freedom from want,
- freedom from fear and
- freedom to live in dignity.
Health is one of the 7 dimensions of security and is well positioned as an entry point to helping secure livelihoods.
The challenge within human security is providing support to countries and organizations as they begin to incorporate the concept into health plans.
Furthering the concept calls for a greater understanding of conceptual, methodological and operational actions, and the role of Public Health and health systems in its development.
EXPECTED OUTCOMES:
• Greater dissemination of the concept of Health and Human Security
• Presentation UN Secretary General’s Report Human Security 2012
• Analysis and understanding of the experience of Health and Human Security Interventions in the Region of the
Americas,
as well as learning from experiences in Africa and
Asia
• Examination of the future application of the approach in the Region of the
Americas
