CRIC Annual Conference

 26 – 28 September 2017, Harris Manchester College, Oxford (invitation only)

Over three days in September each year we bring together our network of CRIC colleagues from around the world to present papers, engage in discussion and plan collaborative ventures. Last year, in addition to the UK, we had academics and policy makers from the USA, Australia, Singapore, Turkey, Cyprus, Belgium, Spain, Lebanon, India, Iraq and Jordan. Presentations covered developments in our studies of Islamist inspired terrorism (including fMRI brain studies), changes of attitude and community problems in the United States, dealing with the human tragedies of disasters and conflicts, why young women join ISIS, and the role of Truth and Reconciliation Commissions. Each year we open up two of our Annual Conference key-note lectures to the public, as we do for most of the other lectures we organize during the year.
