Welcome to the Regional Contributors hub of the International Institute for Human Security (IIHS). This page is your gateway to rich, regionally grounded perspectives on the evolving challenges and opportunities shaping human security around the world.
Our 2025 cohort of Regional Contributors represents a diverse and insightful group of thought leaders, academics, and practitioners. Each contributor brings deep local knowledge and a shared commitment to elevating voices that are often overlooked in global dialogues.
Through quarterly articles, reports, and briefings, our contributors will explore pressing human security issues — from conflict and displacement to environmental resilience and equitable development — all within the framework of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and global peacebuilding efforts.
