Human security concerns two fundamental pronciples, namely, ”freedom from want” and ”freedom from fear” it has a people-centered focus on well-being in which an individual or group has the right to safely develop their full potential and live in dignity. How policy options can be used to foster food security at the subnational, national,regional, and global levels.

AEZ-BLS enables an analysis of policy related to future demographic and economic development pathways, and of the potential impacts of climate change on food production, price, trade and consumption, and an assessment of the scale and location of risks of hunger and malnutrition
