Meeting of the Global Coalition to Defeat ISIS Small Group

Excerpt:  “To confront changing ISIS/Daesh operations and stymie recruitment efforts, the Coalition assessed how to mitigate emerging threats from the use of the internet and to understand and leverage new technologies for counter terrorist purposes. The Coalition considered operationalizing best practices, including reducing terrorist radicalization in diaspora communities. The delegations endorsed the necessary re-structure of the D-ISIS Coalition in order to effectively counter the ISIS/Daesh threat.  This includes revising working group mechanisms to counter terrorist travel, disrupt terrorist financial networks, prevent terrorist recruitment, and regionally focused groups for Syria and Iraq, Central Asia, and sub-Saharan Africa.  This structure will enable maximum effectiveness in our efforts to ensure the enduring defeat of ISIS/Daesh.”
