Exploitation of Online Spaces and Emerging Technologies
This programme examines the various ways in which communications and communities are exploited, particularly emphasising the misuse of online platforms and new technologies.
Programme Introduction
The Terrorism and Conflict Studies team has carried out comprehensive research on the various methods by which communications, online communities, and emerging technologies are utilised, and the implications this has for policies and regulations in both the public and private sectors, as well as for practitioners involved in counter-terrorism and the prevention and countering of violent extremism (CT/PCVE).
Our research aims to develop strategies to address the risks and threats faced by communities in relation to communications, online environments, and emerging technologies.
