Join us on March 15th for an exploration into the world of Counter-Terrorist Financing and the Evolution & Adaptation of Terrorist Tactics. The NPSIA Seminar Series will host Jessica Davis,
President of Insight Threat Intelligence, winner of the 2023 SSHRC Talent Impact Award and PhD Candidate at NPSIA.
In this session, Davis will share her wealth of insights on the critical role of financial countermeasures in thwarting terrorism. Drawing from her extensive research, she will delve into the shifting tactics employed by terrorists and how they adapt to countermeasures over time. Gain a deeper understanding of the challenges posed by modern terrorism and the strategies employed to counteract its financial underpinnings.
We hope you won’t miss this opportunity to engage with Jessica Davis and fellow attendees in a stimulating discussion that promises to shed light on the intricacies of counter-terrorism in the contemporary world.
