The conference also served as the launch event for the new International Centre for the Study of Radicalisation and Political Violence (ICSR), which is the first global centre for advancing knowledge and leadership to counter the growth of radicalisation and political violence. The objective is to combine scholarly insight and political foresight in addressing the challenge from radicalisation and political violence.

Both ICSR and the launch conference stand out as the first time Arab and Israeli academic institutions are openly collaborating to combat radicalisation and political violence.
