Government Advisory Initiative on Islam and Integration

The Government Advisory Initiative on Islam and Integration provides targeted policy and strategic advice to governments, institutions and political leaders on especially sensitive questions regarding Muslim engagement and communications. While primarily focused on Europe, this project has facilitated a transatlantic exchange of experiences which has led to requests by the US government to undertake strategic work on countering violent extremism.
