TETT 2023: Pluralism as Counter-radicalization Education
                                                Mission of TETT Symposia

The TETT symposia strive to create transformative invited space in which conversations around extremism, terrorism, radicalization, and counter-radicalization took place with an aim for interchange of ideas between those who see (general public) and those who decide (policy makers); between those who speak (academic, politicians, media) and those who are silent (youth, communities at large) so that an authentic counter-hegemonic, counter-extremism critical public pedagogy can start to take root.
