Violent extremists and terrorist groups exploit and manipulate gender norms, stereotypes and power dynamics in their recruitment, ideologies, and operations. Therefore, to devise effective programmes to prevent and counter terrorism and violent extremism conducive to terrorism, it is critical to incorporate a gender perspective.

A growing body of research shows that male gender roles and the exploitation of masculinities are significant in driving recruitment to violent extremist or terrorist groups across the ideological spectrum. 

This side event, organized by Canada, Mexico, OSCE, CTED, and UNOCT will bring together various stakeholders to:

• Raise awareness on how violent extremist and terrorist groups use and exploit masculinities, including for recruitment and retention of its members.
• Identify research gaps and recommendations on how to integrate gender perspectives – including the consideration of masculinities – in CT and P/CVE policies and programmes.
• Launch the Gender and Identity Factors Platform.
