Our World: Terrorism is a phenomenon that knows no borders
CEP Senior Director Dr. Hans-Jakob Schindler writes: Terrorism is a phenomenon that knows no borders. The threat of extremist violence is a part of everyday life around the world, a fact that was demonstrated again and again in 2018. Due to the universal nature of this problem, however, coordinated multilateral action on the sources of terrorism remains crucial. While in 2018 we did see progress on anti-terror legislation in Germany, the United Kingdom and at the level of the European Union, these efforts should be further improved to continue to tackle the continued development of terrorist financing methods."

Enduring Music: Compositions from the Holocaust
Marking International Holocaust Remembrance Day, the Counter Extremism Project's ARCHER at House 88 presents a landmark concert of music composed in ghettos and death camps, performed in defiance of resurgent antisemitism. Curated with world renowned composer, conductor, and musicologist Francesco Lotoro, the program restores classical, folk, and popular works, many written on scraps of paper or recalled from memory, to public consciousness. Featuring world and U.S. premieres from Lotoro's archive, this concert honors a repertoire that endured against unimaginable evil.
