At PN we're developing an online and offline portal that seeks to connect influencers worldwide, though we are currently focusing on engaging those in English-speaking countries in an effort to combat polarization, hate and extremism.
We offer a unique blend of theoretical and ideological expertise, as well as experiential knowledge from a former jihadi and a counter-terrorism expert.
We're looking for motivated interns to help us expand our social media outreach. If you're looking to learn how to combat violent extremism in a holistic manner, while learning how to synthesize that expertise with network science, see below!
