The aim of the Nordic conferences on violent extremism is to bring together researchers primarily based at Nordic research institutions to present empirical and theoretical research on violent extremism and prevention hereof. Furthermore, the conference seeks to enhance the conversation and interaction between researchers and practitioners working in the field. It welcomes research-based submissions by practitioners and participation by practitioners as conference attendees.

The conference is genuinely multi- and inter-disciplinary, interested in both theory and practice, and encourages problem-solving as well as critical submissions. Participants who will not present papers are also welcome to attend the conference.

The 7th Nordic Conference on Violent Extremism in 2025 will pay particular attention to the challenges of providing national and local solutions to challenges of violent extremism, which are often tied to global developments – both online and offline. The conference particularly welcomes research which addresses such complexities.
