2022, 2023, 2024
Ms Hussein leads Meta’s Dangerous Organisation and Individuals work on expert partnerships, strategic network disruption and the company’s work with the Global Internet Forum to Counter Terrorism (GIFCT).
Ms Hussein’s expertise include processes of radicalisation, counterterrorism policy and counterinsurgency operations in the MENA. Her previous research focused on the evolving utilisation of communication platforms by violent extremists, tribal dynamics within terrorist organisations and securitisation of civilian space.
Prior to Joining Meta, Ms Hussein worked with the United Nations, Foreign Commonwealth Office, Amnesty International, the Middle East Institute and the US Institute for Peace, amongst others.
The Summit was more than empty words – it made clear that a solution-driven approach is the only way to fight hate. That’s why the working group activities, which are results driven are going to be critical in defeating violent extremism. The Summit brought together the best minds in government, private sector, academia, and civil society. Being surrounded by these experts sparked new ideas – some of which I’ve already implemented or have written about.
