CEP Webinar: Transnational Connections Between Antisemitic Extremist and Terrorist Actors | September 17, 2025

(Berlin, Germany / New York, N.Y.) – The Counter Extremism Project (CEP) invites you to the webinar “Transnational Connections Between Antisemitic Extremist and Terrorist Actors”, which will take place on Wednesday, September 17, 2025.

This is the first webinar of a three-part series focused on highlighting various aspects of the role of antisemitism in the mobilization to violence by extremist and terrorist actors, which is supported by the Federal Foreign Office of Germany.

The webinar will explore how antisemitic actors from different ideological backgrounds—right-wing, left-wing, Islamist, and foreign ideology movements—interact across borders and ideological lines to amplify antisemitic narratives and actions. The objective of the webinar is to analyze the mechanisms and platforms facilitating these transnational linkages, including coordinated protests, shared symbols and slogans, and digital propaganda networks. Drawing from cross-country findings, the webinar will highlight how seemingly distinct extremist milieus converge around antisemitism as a unifying narrative and tactical framework.

The webinar will be conducted in English via Zoom.
