He has written several publications on de-radicalization and has been regularly invited to present research to international practitioner audiences. He has conducted research on the role of "Formers" in countering violent extremism and peacebuilding. Another dimension of his work looks at how de-radicalization programs can generate positive public relations and how community support for reintegration of ex-extremists can be facilitated through messaging and transparency.
