28 & 29 SEPT 2026 | VORTEX Transfer Conference 2026
The GERME is pleased to share the upcoming VORTEX Transfer Conference, marking the conclusion of the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Doctoral Network VORTEX (Coping with the Varieties of Radicalization into Terrorism and Extremism), funded by the European Union.
📅 28–29 September 2026
📍 Hotel Barsey by Warwick, Brussels
This event marks the end of our project and will allow a reflection on our achievements as well as the next steps. It is also specifically designed as a space to bridge the gap between academic research and real-world application by bringing together leading scholars, industry practitioners, and policy makers.
The conference will serve as a platform to present the findings and work developed by our team of doctoral candidates over the past years. Our goal is to foster a dynamic exchange of ideas that can inform future policy frameworks, enhance practical interventions, and deepen theoretical understanding of radicalisation.
Highlights include:
🎙️ Keynote lectures by internationally renowned scholars
💬 Interactive roundtables on online extremism, prevention policies, securitization, intersectionality and counter-radicalisation
🎓 Presentations by doctoral researchers showcasing years of collaborative work
✅ Attendance is free, but registration is required.
