With Souleyma Haddaoui
Terrorism is a global and non discriminating threat. As such, my approach deconstructs the "us vs them" dichotomy and calls for a global response whereby all societies and people of all faiths work hand in hand to find durable solutions.
- Global and inclusive approach
- Violent extremism as a transversal phenomenon
- Violent extremism is an ideology not a religion
