With rapidly evolving threats and opportunities changing the global security ecosystem - including (but not limited to) the climate emergency, increasing societal pressures, technological shifts and the role of the space domain in security - their importance has intensified over the past 24 months, alongside ongoing military and political turbulence.

Drawing on PA Consulting's knowledge and experience across defence, security and the wider public sector, the programme explore five paradoxes that span the major shifts and introduce five solution areas for practical progress now. Its Secure Futures series is developed for - and with - the global security community and PA Consulting is inviting interested parties to participate, as it continues to explore the practical creation of a secure future for all.
