Global Consortium on Security Transformation

Fostering new ways to think security

As the world becomes more interdependent and unequal, there is a crucial need for cross-regional dialogues to foster new thinking and policy solutions to contentious security challenges. The Global Consortium (GC) aims to encourage existing south-south and south-north security and development debates in order to promote a change of the existing understanding of security as well as opens spaces for new voices. The dialogue network takes the form of a partnership between eight institutions located in different regions of the world.
