International Day for the Prevention of Violent Extremism as and when Conducive to Terrorism - February 12

Together Towards Peace and Stability

On the International Day for the Prevention of Violent Extremism as and when Conducive to Terrorism, we call on for the commitment to humanitarian principles and the culture of peace in resolving conflicts in order to preserve human dignity, and we stress the danger of extremism and terrorism. The United Nations stated that “the spread of violent extremism has further aggravated an already unprecedented humanitarian crisis which surpasses the boundaries of any one region. Millions of people have fled the territory controlled by terrorist and violent extremist groups. Migratory flows have increased both away, from, and towards the conflict zones - involving those seeking safety and those lured into the conflict as foreign terrorist fighters, further destabilizing the regions concerned.”
