2 international and interdisciplinary seminars in less than a week.

A lot of learning and insights, and a strengthened network to position Brazil within the global discussions in the field.

An incredible lecture by Marc, followed by another presentation by researcher Leonardo Moser from FIRS on how antisemitism serves as a driver of Extreme Violence.

Missions accomplished ❤️

Six years ago, when I spoke about all our gaps in this field, I never imagined we would be able to bridge one of them

And the closing session featured Senator Alessandro Vieira, in an incredible and thoughtful conversation about our challenges and gaps in this field.
Also present, as my guest, was the mother of Nicolly Pogere, the young girl who was murdered in July by a couple of teenagers also radicalized online.
