EUKH Update - Fourth Newsletter | March 2025

This issue explores the evolving threats of radicalisation, starting with the link between mental health and extremism. Recent attacks in several European cities have also reignited debates on online radicalisation, as extremist recruitment accelerates on social media.

We commemorate the 21st European Remembrance Day for Victims of Terrorism with a ceremony in Strasbourg, featuring powerful testimonies and acts of solidarity. Use the link in the article to watch the live stream of the full event on our YouTube channel.

Professor Ioannis Armakolas who is responsible for steering the Knowledge Hub research activities also highlights emerging threats, from AI-driven extremism to the rising risks among youth, offering insights on how policy and research must adapt. We also share takeaways from our Strategic Communications training in Malaga, where experts discussed countering extremist narratives and disinformation.

This edition spotlights the IN2PREV project, which supports refugee integration while preventing radicalisation through early risk detection and mentoring.

Finally, explore two key resources: The Hub. Insights, our new magazine - its first issue is dedicated to amplifying the voices of victims and survivors of terrorism in tribute to the Remembrance Day - and our updated events section, a useful tool for upcoming discussions and training opportunities.

We invite you to read on and join our mission to build more resilient communities across Europe.
