More than 250 State officials and representatives from civil society and business are in Vienna on Monday for an Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) conference on public-private partnerships (PPPs) in combating terrorism.
The two-day conference organized by the OSCE Action against Terrorism Unit will focus on public-private co-operation, including with the media, to counter violent extremism, and on PPPs to protect critical infrastructures and major events against terrorist attacks, as well as to block channels for terrorist financing, according to an OSCE press release.
Ambassador Antti Turunen, the Permanent Representative of Finland to the OSCE, said: "Public-private partnerships can play an essential role in the fight against terrorism, and the OSCE is committed to promoting co-operation between states, the business community and civil society to suppress terrorist financing, protect against terrorist attack and curb radicalization and violent extremism that lead to terrorism."
Participants of the conference will exchange ideas and information, discuss and further explore the potential for concrete public-private co-operation in countering terrorism within the OSCE region.
The conference is organized with financing from Spain, the United States, and Russia.
