The media plays a critical role in raising awareness about the dangers of radicalization. Network member, Ghaffar Hussein was a key speaker at a briefing at the European Parliament on this subject in January 2013, hosted by the European Foundation for Democracy. He advised legislators, diplomats, and journalists about the differences in reporting on radicalization among various European countries. Ghaffar is also the Research Director at the Quilliam Foundation, a think tank in London dedicated to countering extremism.
Other speakers included Andrew Gilligan, the London Editor for the Sunday Telegraph, a center-right newspaper and Morten Skjoldager from Politiken, a leading Danish center-left broadsheet.
