IPI Launches CWC Working Papers Series

In this ongoing series of Working Papers, IPI, (formerly International Peace Academy) has asked leading experts to undertake a mapping exercise, presenting an assessment of critical challenges to human and international security.

A first group of papers provides a horizontal perspective, examining the intersection of multiple challenges in specific regions of the world. A second group takes a vertical approach, providing in-depth analysis of global challenges relating to organized violence, poverty, population trends, public health, and climate change, among other topics. The Working Papers have three main objectives: to advance the understanding of these critical challenges and their interlinkages; to assess capacities to cope with these challenges and to draw scenarios for plausible future developments; and to offer a baseline for longer-term research and policy development.
