Previously, she worked as the Programming Intern with Erin Saltman at the Global Internet Forum to Counter Terrorism (GIFCT) in London, and as a Research Intern for the Centre for Analysis of the Radical Right (CARR). Maddie specialises in the far-right, exploring violent extremism in Europe and North America from a gendered and youth-centred perspective using an ethnographic approach.

The Summit unites the public and private sectors, domestic and international, against hate and extremism. Researchers, activists, lawyers, technology experts, political leaders, and more come together, each bringing their unique tools to the fight. Important relationships that were established at the Summit in 2021 have carried forward into working groups with concrete deliverables for 2022 and beyond.
