Conference by Rik Coolsaet, professor at Ghent University and Senior Associate Fellow, Egmont Institute.
Some 500 Belgians, mostly in their 20s, left their home country for Syria, where they joined the most brutal terrorist group IS, also known by its Arabic acronym Daesh. So did thousands of other Europeans. This phenomenon raises difficult questions.
The conference will take place in French.
