Tagesanzeiger: “Well done!”: Young man receives donations after disruptive action at LGBTQ event
Hans-Jakob Schindler is director of the NGO Counter Extremism Project and has been investigating how extremist and terrorist organizations finance themselves for more than 25 years. He knows the pattern: "On the one hand, extremist groups try to dominate public discourse with their actions. On the other hand, it's always about mobilizing supporters and generating funds,“ says Schindler. It's important to understand that even small contributions of a few hundred francs or euros can make a big difference. ”Extremist groups specialize in achieving a big impact with little money."

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.
