Clara Broekaert is a Research Analyst at The Soufan Center, an Associate Fellow at the International Centre for Counter-Terrorism, and a Senior Research Fellow at Tech Against Terrorism. Her work focuses on terrorism, foreign interference, and conflict. She has conducted various investigations into terrorist groups, examining their intent, capabilities, organizational structures, digital ecosystems, and operational tradecraft. Her current work asks how terrorist groups and individuals inspired by them learn, adapt, and adopt new technologies — and under what conditions this results in meaningful uplift.
To me, Eradicate Hate was the most important gathering of 2021 for those of us who work on issues related to domestic extremism and organized hate. The Summit uniquely combined a variety of perspectives, including experts, civil society representatives, politicians and policymakers, and the families and loved ones of victims. Eradicate Hate has the important mission of standing against the rising tide of hate and extremism in our society, and it’s an honor to be able to support this mission.
