Foreword

Victims/survivors of terrorism (both those who have been targets of a terrorist attack and those who have lost a relative) play an important role in preventing and countering violent extremism (P/CVE), given they can testify to the harm and suffering caused by terrorism. 2024 marks the 20th anniversary of the European Remembrance Day for Victims of Terrorism, which was first created to remember those who lost their lives in the 2004 Madrid train bombings. In this edition of the RAN Practitioners Update we therefore explore the importance of this day, the need to support victims, and enable them to play a role in P/CVE. This includes the latest RAN Reporters Spotlight magazine, film and summary of the event. The Update also highlights some upcoming RAN Practitioners events, the most recent RAN Practitioners papers, and a project delivered by a member of the network.
