Global Community Engagement and Resilience Fund

It is crucial to promote gender parity in efforts to prevent violent extremism. It is only through inclusion – by empowering, engaging, and integrating in their communities people of all genders and backgrounds – that we can hope to defeat the absolutist, exclusive, and lethal scourge of violent extremism.
I support the IGC Panel Parity Pledge.
I support the IGC gender-based violence pledge.
