““[The world has] historically looked at security in a traditional and maybe too narrow way: demobilizing the belligerents, trying to reintegrate the ex-combatants — a military approach to security. But we need to look at other indicators of real human security. Are girls returning to school? Are women safe in their communities? Is civil society occupying some space? Because that is the test — security of the people, not just whether warring factions have laid down their arms”.”
