Remarks by the UNAOC High Representative at the Hamad Bin Khalifa University Roundtable and Book Launch of “Informing Action: Higher Education Institutions Countering Violent Extremism”

COVID-19 has disrupted virtually every aspect of our lives. The impact of which goes well beyond being a health crisis. It is for example clear that the pandemic has seriously disrupted education systems, with 1.2 billion students and youth across the planet affected by school closures. But one of the most serious repercussions of the pandemic has been the spread of the hate virus, which has spiked and thrived, both off- and online. Racism, xenophobia and discrimination, have been exacerbated in the context of the pandemic.
