Episode 2: “Human Security, Gender and the Environment”

Guest: Dr. Ursula Oswald Spring – Host: Dr. Alejandra Flores Martínez

Thinking about human security through the lens of gender and the environment compels us to recognize that we cannot be individually secure in profoundly unequal societies, nor can we build well-being by destroying the environmental conditions that make our own lives possible. Finally, it means acknowledging that we do not all perceive and experience security risks in the same way.


Episode 3: "Human Security and Emotional Infrastructure: A Forward-Looking Vision "

Guest: Dr. Guillermina Baena Paz – Host: Dr. Alejandra Flores Martínez

We generally associate security with the absence of violence, with police, institutions, or protection mechanisms. But perhaps we have paid less attention to what happens within people: our fears, our confidence, our ability to cope with uncertainty, and, especially, our capacity to imagine that another future is possible.


Episode 4: Violence against children raised in single-parent families

Guest: Doctoral Candidate Violeta Estefanía Romero Galván – Host: Dr. Alejandra Flores Martínez
