The changing nature of violent extremism: Challenges in a new age

AVERT Co-Convenors Lydia Khalil and Michele Grossman, and AVERT Executive Committee member Emily Corner recently appeared on the National Security Podcast to discuss the changing nature of violent extremism.

In this recent episode, entitled, ‘The changing nature of violent extremism: challenges in a new age’, Lydia Khalil, Michele Grossman and Emily Corner joined Gai Brodtmann to discuss the evolution of violent extremism, and how these changes create new challenges for policymakers.

The discussion centred around three pressing questions: How has violent extremism evolved in recent decades? Why do the words used to discuss and describe extremism matter so much? And what challenges will governments, communities and individuals face in combating these threats in the digital age?
