Hedayah's International Research Conference & Communications Expo
In recognition of the fast-paced and constantly evolving nature of extremism and violent extremism and the subsequent need to respond through programming and policies, Hedayah annually convenes leading experts to share new research, methodologies, best practices, and findings for the benefit of the broader community of researchers, practitioners, and policymakers in fields related to countering extremism and violent extremism.
This year, Hedayah is hosting a groundbreaking crossover event that brings together this broad community to consider not only the vital contributions to evidence from research, but cutting-edge approaches from various sectors in countering and preventing extremism and violent extremism through strategic communications interventions. Participants can have the opportunity to delve into how evidence and insights from diverse sectors including technology, social behavior change, and strategic communications can be harnessed to innovate and enhance efforts against extremism and violent extremism.
The event is split across four days, with participants able to attend individual days or components.
- Event Objectives:
