Preventing and countering radicalisation and violent extremism is a vital element in the fight against terrorism. This Hearing will take stock of the progress made in this area since Parliament's resolution on this topic last year and will look ahead on future challenges.

Commissioner King and the Council Presidency will debate with the Committee the recent measures taken on European and national level to prevent radicalisation. Afterwards, two dedicated panels with practitioners will focus on the challenges and possible measures to take in the area of online radicalisation and of countering radicalisation in prisons/judicial system.
