It was an absolute pleasure to participate in GNET's Annual Conference! I'm honoured to have been able to discuss extremism with such excellent panelists and to hear so many interesting discussions about how to study extremism online.
We were thrilled to have our third and final panel of speakers present on Multi-Media Radicalisation and the Online-Offline Extremism Nexus.
This panel covered an ideological range - from the far right, extremist misogyny and gaming, to the Islamic State.
