Seminar at Swedish Institute of International Affairs

2017-10-05

On Tuesday 10 October, project leader Prof. Isak Svensson spoke during the seminar "Hur kan jihadistiska konflikter lösas?" at the Swedish Institute of International Affairs (UI) in Stockholm. 

Against the backdrop of an increase in armed conflicts with militant Islamists - several of them transnational, even global - the seminar discussed issues such as the origins of jihadist conflicts, how they can be resolved, and what role Sweden can play in preventing violent extremism. In addition to Prof. Svensson, the seminar also featured Bitte Hammargren (UI), Sanna Klinghoffer (SVT), Adel Elsayed Sparr (Nationella samordnaren mot våldsam extremism), and Aras Lindh (UI) as moderator.

The seminar will be launched as a podcast by UI. For more information, please visit: https://www.ui.se/english/.
