International Day for the Prevention of Violent Extremism (PVE)

To mark the third commemoration of the International Day for the Prevention of Violent Extremism (PVE) as and when Conducive to Terrorism, on 12 February, the Permanent Mission of the Republic of Iraq to the United Nations and the United Nations Office of Counter-Terrorism (UNOCT) organized a special under the framework of the United Nations Global Counter-Terrorism Coordination Compact Working Group on Preventing and Countering Violent Extremism Conducive to Terrorism.

Violent extremism conducive to terrorism is a rapidly evolving threat worldwide, impacting stability, eroding social cohesion and fundamental freedoms. It continues to pose a threat to international peace and security, undermining the United Nations' efforts to foster sustainable development, promote respect for human rights, and deliver humanitarian aid. 

This commemorative event provided a forum for the international community to come together and explore innovative measures to address the root causes of violent extremism conducive to terrorism and prevent its spread.
