The Centre for Human Security’s mission is to make human security-related research and activities more accessible to policy and research communities, nationally and internationally. The Centre’s main project is the Canadian Consortium on Human Security which is an academic-based network promoting policy-relevant research on human security. Its core mission is to facilitate the analysis and the exchange of information relating to human security in Canada and internationally.
The Human Security Report Project (HSRP) which produced the Human Security Report and Brief was located at the Human Security Centre, Liu Institute for Global Issues, University of British Columbia from February 2002 to May 2007.
Human Security Brief 2006
The intent of the Human Security Brief 2006 is twofold: to update the core trend data on political violence around the world that were published in the 2005 Human Security Report, and to analyse the key findings of a number of datasets that track these changes.

Human Security Report 2005

It identifies and examines major trends in global political violence, asks what factors drive these trends and examines some of the consequences. It poses major challenges to conventional wisdom.
