On 22 November, ICCT director Mark Singleton addressed the NATO Committee on the Civil Dimension of Security, at the 60th NATO Parliamentary Assembly conference in The Hague. The topic of his presentation was on recent trends in counter- terrorism and the Foreign Fighters phenomenon. Approximately 60 participants from all NATO Member States and NATO partner countries and agencies, mostly members of parliament, attended the event and took part in a lively Q and A session. The proceedings of the Conference will be shared with participants in due course. ICCT is currently engaged in two NATO-supported activities: (i) a research project on transitioning from military interventions to long-term counter-terrorism policy; and (ii) an international conference on countering terrorism after the Arab revolutions.
