Abstract

Sustainable development requires a deep understanding of peace and security that is centred on human beings. It includes a gender perspective of equality and equity, embedded in environmental concerns. This human, gender and environmental peace and security (Oswald Spring 2009; see book PAHSEP 18) – ‘HUGE’ – effort should be undertaken by millions of organised citizens, who seek a balance among humans and the natural environment for the benefit of future generations . A significant contribution to this goal of building a sustainable culture of peace is the Earth Charter (2000), which integrates concerns for a peaceful and sustainable future world. Such actions are orientated towards mitigation of the present environmental destruction by creating synergies for an engendered and sustainable peace-building (Chap. 6) that might be able to strengthen the long-standing and former more harmonious relationship between humankind and nature.

Notes

  1. 1.

    The HUGE concept is based on sustainable cultures of peace but goes a step further by including a widened security understanding developed by the Copenhagen School on Security (Buzan, Wæver, Wilde 1998), where, in addition to the traditional military and political security , societal, economic and environmental security is also included. A “horizontal widening” from national military security to political, economic, societal and environmental security is complemented by a “vertical deepening” from the State to ‘human’ and ‘gender ’ security – upwards from ‘national’ to ‘regional’ and ‘global’, and downwards to ‘societal’ and ‘local’ security . Finally ‘sectoralisation’ to energy , food , health , water and livelihood security allows an integrated approach to human and gender security (Brauch et al. 2009). This conceptual innovation also complements the top-down policy approach to human security proposed by UNDP (1994) by extending the traditional scope of security towards the individual, and bottom-up perspectives of peace and security . In this understanding the referent object changes from the State towards the people, whenever their well-being and their environmental risks relate to climate change . It also changes the threats , as it is not other nations, but our own consumerist behaviour and the emissions of greenhouse gases that are causing extreme events and disasters. Thus, since the Rio Earth Summit of 1992, the dangers posed by global environmental change and climate change – due to anthropogenically induced production and consumption patterns – challenge the survival of humankind.

    One of the main goals to achieve such peace cultures is sustainable development and the related concept of engendered-sustainable peace , which respects the accumulated wisdom of indigenous societies (Salinas/Oswald Spring 2002). This goal has encouraged multiple researchers, activists and politicians to cooperate.
