Islamabad : Panelists at the concluding session of an international conference called for joint efforts to check radicalisation in society.
The three-day moot on 'Radicalisation: perceptions, realities and challenges of campus life' was organised at the Air University here.
The sub-themes of the conference were religion, education, identity, culture and media.
The conference was a collaborative endeavour of the Air University, Council of Islamic Ideology, Muslim Institute and Centre for Research and Security Studies.
On the last day, a workshop on the theme of countering extremist narratives was held.
Dr Khalid Zaheer of the Al-Mawrid Institute delivered a lecture in which he stressed that only a counter narrative from within the religion could counter religious extremism.
