Summary/Abstract: Peacekeeping and Human Security are imposed as the current global challenges in the international community. In this paper, through the prism of security challenges, Human Rights and Human Security are seen in a relationship with individual security that is set as a basis of national security, and national security hat has been set as the basis of international security. Poverty, terrorism and conflict prevention are one of the most important challenges that need to be tackled by the international community. Consensus must be expected on democracy, rule of law and human rights protection which are important not only as a true Human Values, but as a basis for Human Security. This paper suggests that the most important challenge that is facing humanity now is the diversity of thinking, ways in which people perceive each other, principles of tolerance and respect, issues of cultural differences... An important task of the UN, in this context, is to unite world nations regarding the minimum standard of Human Rights and security contained in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
