Global Network on Extremism and Technology (GNET)

PRIF is the European core partner for the Global Network on Extremism and Technology (GNET), the academic research arm of the Global Internet Forum to Counter Terrorism (GIFCT). GNET started its work in summer 2020.

GNET aims to better understand the ways in which extremists use technology. Its goal is to promote rigorous academic research which produces policy-relevant outputs aimed at guarding against real world harms. The International Centre for the Study of Radicalisation (ICSR), based at King’s College London, convenes the initiative and its global network of scholars. Besides ICSR and PRIF, the core members of GNET are the Program on Extremism (PoE; George Washington University, Washington, D.C., USA), the Centre of Excellence for National Security (CENS; S. Rajaratnam School of International Studies, Singapore), and the Lowy Institute (LI; Sydney, Australia).
