"How to combat radicalisation and terrorism: prevention tools and shared knowledge in the Mediterranean and European space"
3-4 December, Ismaili Centre, Lisbon
The Lisbon Forum is an excellent arena in which to strengthen contacts, dialogue and cooperation between various stakeholders as it represents an opportune moment for actors with recognised expertise to discuss the state of play in the region, exchange experience and good practice in light of recent events or acts of terrorism that are a shared area of grave concern for the European and Mediterranean space.
In 2015, the Lisbon Forum was developed along three main axes:
Rule of Law and Democratic responses: A bulwark against radicalisation
Preventing radicalisation through education and training
Empowering young people and women to prevent and combat radicalisation
The Lisbon Forum 2015 offered the opportunity to frame discussions in light of recent developments with the presentation of the outcomes of three important Council of Europe events organised in the weeks preceding the Forum:
CoE Exchange on the religious dimension of intercultural dialogue: "Building inclusive societies together: - the role and place of religion in public space; - teaching about religions and non-religious beliefs at school"(Sarajevo, 2-3 November)
World Forum on Democracy – Freedom vs Control: For a democratic response (Strasbourg, 18-20 November)
