We should focus on Human Security. In this powerful talk, Gary Lewis shares how the essential point about human security is that it shifts focus away from the traditional preoccupation of “national security” - which is the state - and places it on people - on individuals.
Gary Lewis - a native of Barbados - has served with the United Nations for over 27 years in the Middle East, Asia, Africa, Europe and the Caribbean. He is currently the UN Resident Coordinator in Iran. In this capacity he is responsible for the UN’s work in the priority areas of poverty, health, environment, disaster mitigation, drug control and refugees.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx

This is such an important message that discusses the root cause of much of the unrest around the world. If we do not tackle the real issues, we will continue to be overwhelmed with dealing with the symptoms.

We agree which is why we started the HADR Institure to monitor human security issues and provide monitoring and analysis

This wasn't about human security so much as ecological security. I understand human security is holistic and multi-factored, but this didn't even provide a descript overview of human security. Sorely dissapointed.

Because it is, communism was sold just like that, no one sold communism in russia, china or cuba by promising famine, they were selling "solutions", now they manufactured fear.

Yes, you would be correct. Many of these people use utopian language to lull the masses in lockstop with their Internationalist agenda. This is pure propaganda. Luckily this speaker is a moron.
