Briefs

Parliamentarians are particularly well placed to support efforts towards the prevention of violent conflict and raise awareness on human security issues. In an effort to support the broad array of opportunities for action, the Parliamentarians Network completes regular working briefs which provide background information, facts and figures, and key opportunities and recommendations for action, as well as information on the key actors working on these issues.

Recent issue-briefs include:

• Water Security
• Demographic Shifts
  • Burgeoning Population Growth and Rapid Urbanization
  • Rising Unemployment and the Global Youth Bulge
  • Migrating Populations

Other resources for Parliamentarians:

• A World of Difference: Parliamentary Oversight of British Foreign Policy
• Parliaments as Peacebuilders: Parliaments in Conflict-Affected Countries
• Parliament's Role in Conflict Mediation/Resolution

If you or your organization would like to submit a brief for consideration please contact the Secretariat.
