Network members, Ahmad Mansour and Rashad Ali were guest speakers at a briefing at the European Parliament on "Radicalization in Schools and Universities." The briefing was hosed by Ollie Schmidt, MEP (Sweden) in cooperation with the European Foundation for Democracy.

Network members Jasvinder Sanghera and Ahmad Mansour testified at a public hearing on criminalizing forced marriage in the EU at the European Parliament on June 29th 2011. The hearing was co-chaired by EP Vice President, Diana Wallis (Liberal/UK) and Jean Lambert (Greens/UK).

Forced marriage is a criminal offense in six EU countries – Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Denmark, Germany and Malta – and Sweden is expected to debate a proposal to criminalize in mid-2012. Forced Marriage is also criminalized in Norway, not an EU member state though nonetheless subject to all EU legislation through the European Economic Area Agreement. Breaching a Forced Marriage Civil Protection Order is a criminal offense in Scotland though not in England, Wales or Northern Ireland.

Network members from all over Europe were invited to meet with Italy's Council for Islam on June 24, and discuss how governments can better work with "moderate" Muslims to counter Islamic Extremism. The Advisory Council was established in 2005 by the Italian Ministry of Interior to facilitate constructive dialogue between the State and Italy's Muslim citizens. Network member, Ejaz Ahmad participates in the Council.

The meeting served as an opportunity for a discussion on "Islam and Citizenship" held at the Italian Parliament with five Members of Parliament, which was broadcast on satellite TV and streamed live on the Internet.
