“We are entering a new era of human security where
the entire concept of security will change and
change dramatically. Security will be interpreted as
security of the people, not just security of territory,
security of individuals, not just security of their
nations; security through development, not security
through arms, security of all the people everywhere
– in their home, in their job, in their streets, in their
communities, in their environment.”
