| Summary: | After drawing a theoretical framework based on a reciprocal approach for understanding the relationship between security and development, the paper suggests a causal diagram in which all Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) occur as an interdependent whole and security is embedded as “Goal 0” to symbolise the link from security to development or vice versa. The diagram unveils the interaction between development and human and state dimensions of security, arguing that the definition of security cannot be limited to nonviolence or peace. Instead, the diagram emphasises that security, akin to development, is a multidimensional concept. The paper thus brings a comprehensive approach to security, emphasising the interdependence between human and state security, and highlighting how both perspectives contribute to development. By incorporating security in SDGs and making it more visible, the paper aims to bring a solution-oriented perspective to the policy-making process. Finally, the paper discusses the nexus between development and security through the analysis of two cases within SDGs: climate change and food security.
The paper concludes that incorporating security in SDGs can provide a basis for implementing effective policies in the transition from sustainable development to sustainable security and successfully putting forward the 2030 agenda for the SDGs.
