Terrorist groups are using the Internet and social media for propaganda purposes and terrorist recruitment. In this context, developing counter-narratives is becoming increasingly important for preventing and countering violent extremism (PCVE). This session aims to discuss ways to develop effective counter-narratives, share best practices, and provide policy recommendations for PCVE with experts from the UN Counter-Terrorism Committee Executive Directorate (CTED), Hedayah Center, etc. This session will be held back to back with the ‘Asia ICT and Counter-Terrorism Dialogue,’ which will be organized by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Korea and the CTED from 29 to 30 May in Jeju.
