DeradicalisationCVEFormersReintegration.
As a Lecturer at the University of Leeds, I engage in policy-relevant research on addressing the global challenges of terrorism and violent extremism. I have written several publications on de-radicalization and have been regularly invited to present research to international practitioner audiences. I have worked on understanding the role (and its limitations) of former combatants and extremists with peacebuilding and P/CVE. Most recently my work looks at how de-radicalization programmes can generate positive public relations and how community support for reintegration of ex-extremists can be facilitated through messaging.
