OSCE Counter-Terrorism conference, Berlin 2016

The OSCE Counter-Terrorism conference, which was organized by the Germany’s 2016 Chairmanship, brought together in Berlin more than 300 participants, including Deputy Foreign Ministers, Secretaries of State and Counter-Terrorism Co-ordinators from OSCE participating States as well as Asian and Mediterranean Partners for Co-operation.

The conference was also attended by the members of 18 international and regional organizations, including various UN agencies, together with more than 60 civil society, academia and youth representatives that came together to share experiences and unite in preventing terrorism and protecting human rights.

With the role of youth, and in particular young women, being one of the main topics, participants focused on co-operation with youth-led and youth-focused initiatives, especially when designing strategies to counter violent extremism and radicalization that lead to terrorism.
