It’s time to rethink our approach to security.
As governments attempt to improve national security, global military spending has reached
$2.7 trillion. Yet by almost every other measure, insecurity is rising. This is the paradox
the Security Futures Lab exists to address.
The expertise to rethink security already exists, distributed across institutions,
disciplines and regions. What is missing is the integrated framework to connect it, the
political vocabulary to act on it, and the public mandate to demand it. That is what the
Lab seeks to build over the next three years.
Hosted at the Oxford Martin School, University of Oxford.
