Human security is one of the most promising approaches for future security. This Bachelor's thesis aims to assess the implementation of human security into NATO's operations. The paper reviews the theoretical framework of the human security concept definition and application. Through a comprehensive literature analysis, the most important documents from the United Nations and the Sustainable Development Goals are revised as the leading promoters of Human Security. Therefore, NATO, since it is considered one of the most powerful military alliances in the world, it is expected to face a transition to human security.
The official data from the NATO 2030 Agenda and the Strategic Concept 2022 are contrasted to determine the benefits and disadvantages of implementing human security by NATO. The analysed findings presented, demonstrate a military organisation's limitations and challenges in providing human security. Additionally, the study case on NATO's operation in Kosovo sheds light to reveal the reality of NATO's efforts in addressing human security.
