The workshop was officially opened by @IG_NPS who said, “ the threat of terrorism & violent extremism is not a problem of one state or continent but is a global issue which affects all of us directly or indirectly.”
The IG further noted that although women constitute a significant number in the world population their inclusion in the process of countering terrorism &violent extremism remains significantly low & hence the need for the growing recognition of the multiple roles that women play.
