The GTA's Alternative Security Project
This is the first of a series of webinars that will open the series with a conceptual discussion on security in a time of deep civilizational crisis. It will examine how security has traditionally been framed through the international order, the nation-state, sovereignty, militarization, and the management of threats, while asking how communities and movements are challenging this paradigm today. The conversation will explore how alternatives to security are being articulated through autonomy, care, territorial and collective self-defense, direct democracy, and community-based practices that defend life beyond the state-centered security framework.
The GTA Alternative Security Project explores how communities and movements are challenging dominant security paradigms rooted in state power, militarization, surveillance, patriarchy, colonialism, and extractivism. Rather than asking how security can be reformed within existing systems, the project asks how communities are already building alternatives to security through autonomy, care, territorial defense, collective self-organization, community justice, and the reproduction of life beyond state and market logics.
This webinar series seeks to deepen a shared framework for thinking about alternatives to mainstream and state-led security by bringing together grassroots movements, researchers, and allies from different regions. Across three 90-minute sessions, the series will create a space for cross-regional dialogue on how communities facing militarization, surveillance, criminalization, extractivism, and war are redefining safety, protection, autonomy, and collective well-being from below.
