Today, the cooperation at the level of national parliaments and inter-parliamentary organizations is becoming an essential condition for successful counter-terrorist efforts, which allow to effectively combat various manifestations of extremist activities.

The Conference, which aims to join efforts for building common approaches to address this challenge, plans to discuss the role of international institutions in countering terrorism, prevention of the use of network technologies to spread extremist ideas, and improvement of legislation for the prosecution of terrorists and suppression of terrorism financing.
