NATO Review

The Arab Spring - what now? 19 Dec. 2012 Asked if the French revolution had been a success, Zhou Enlai (or apocryphally Ho Chi Minh) famously replied that it was too soon to say. So why the rush to evaluate the Arab Spring? What would success actually look like? And what do the changes mean for those who deal with the region, such as NATO? 
Pictures of the revolution 19 Dec. 2012 Sometimes words don't capture history in quite the way a picture can. Here, we present some of the most striking photos drawn from the Arab Spring uprisings - looking at their people, their struggles and ultimately their successes. 
Libya's 2011 revolution ... in 2 minutes 19 Dec. 2012 Two minutes outlining the fall of a regime that had stood for 42 years - a fall which took Libyan people from protest to conquest. 
Squaring the circle in the Arab uprisings 19 Dec. 2012 It was two years that in a small roundabout in Egypt, called ‘Liberation Square’, a few hundred people gathered to protest against the government of Hosni Mubarak. Dr H.A. Hellyer analyses how 18 days later, that square would be etched into modern world history by its original Arabic name: Tahrir.  
India’s nexus between resources, climate change - and stability 20 Nov. 2012 Few would predict that growing populations, decreasing resources and climate change will have an effect on security. But what could they be? And how will they affect heavily-populated areas of the world? Michael Kugelman looks at the potential changes for South Asia in general, and India in particular. 
Thought for food 27 Nov. 2012 Feeding the world is a Herculean task. And harnessing adequate water supplies is getting harder - especially as demand increases. This photostory shows some of the major obstacles to all the world's food reaching all the world's people. 
India’s nexus between resources, climate change - and stability 20 Nov. 2012 Few would predict that growing populations, decreasing resources and climate change will have an effect on security. But what could they be? And how will they affect heavily-populated areas of the world? Michael Kugelman looks at the potential changes for South Asia in general, and India in particular. 
Food security: an unfashionable subject often taken for granted 12 Oct. 2012 Food insecurity still blights some areas of the world. But the main problem is not the overall amount of food. It is its correct distribution. Just changing this could save millions of lives and reduce conflict. 
Energy security and NATO: a view from Washington 12 Oct. 2012 What you see depends on where you are standing…and the view of energy security from here on the banks of the Potomac River, is surely quite different from that on the banks of the Seine, the Thames, the Vistula, or of Faxafloi Bay. 
Food, Water and Energy 12 Oct. 2012 Those who thought that climate change, energy insecurity and food shortages were the things of faraway lands have had cause to think again recently. 
Energy and the environment 12 Oct. 2012 We ask energy and environment expert, Jason Blackstock, how he sees changes in the area, whether they are a cause for optimism and where he sees the potential flashpoints. 
Water or WARter? 12 Oct. 2012 Water is the essence of life. But drinkable, fresh water is at a premium. Rising populations, poor water use and shortages in key areas are all major factors. This video gives a quick tour of the world showing why water is an issue for everyone. 
Fuel for thought 12 Oct. 2012 Energy use is not a side issue for security. Power outages in many NATO states have shown how vulnerable we all are without sufficient energy. As the demand for more energy resources increases, how can we make sure this does not lead to conflict? 
Nature's forces and the armed forces 12 Oct. 2012 NATO Review looks at why getting the armed forces closer to the realities of energy and environmental problems is actually a good move. And why most people would benefit. 
Feeding or fighting 12 Oct. 2012 Geoff Hiscock looks at how enough food production and water usage for everyone is attainable. But how further conflict awaits if no progress is made.

Women, peace and security

NATO and its partners are taking concerted action to support implementation of United Nations Security Council Resolution (UNSCR) 1325, which was adopted in October 2000. UNSCR 1325 recognizes the disproportionate impact that war and conflicts have on women and children, and highlights the fact that women have been historically left out of peace processes and stabilization efforts.

The 28 Allies and Russia work together as equal partners in the NATO-Russia Council (NRC), which was established in 2002. The NRC provides a framework for consultation on current security issues and practical cooperation in a wide range of areas of common interest.
