About This Project
IPI’s work on terrorism supports the broad UN community — including Member States, experts and practitioners — by bringing international research on terrorism and counterterrorism to bear on UN policy debates. In addition, IPI uses its convening role to create informal fora that support dialogue and policy development to strengthen multilateral security capacity to address transnational terrorism and violent political militancy.
