WANA Institute conducts research on human security approaches

AMMAN — The West Asia-North Africa (WANA) Institute is leading the research and implementation of the regional project: “Towards More Effective Human Security Approaches in the Context of the Emerging Threat of Violent Extremism in Jordan, Lebanon and Tunisia”, which was implemented in 18 communities across Jordan, Lebanon and Tunisia, comprising 238 research activities with the participation of 1,732 participants, according to a WANA statement.

The aim of the research is to provide insight into human security approaches that empower community stakeholders to participate in and contribute to security dynamics. Several human security programmes have been implemented in the WANA region since 2014 to prevent violent extremism.
