Haras Rafiq, Managing Director of Quilliam, talks to BBC London Radio about new plans to challenge extremism on university campuses. In the discussion, Haras mentions the importance of ensuring extremist speakers on campuses are not given unchallenged platforms. Extremist speakers should be allowed to speak, but an opposing view should also be voiced in order to prevent the creation of echo chambers which can potentially aid  the radicalisation process.

Quilliam is the world’s first counter-extremism think tank set up to address the unique challenges of citizenship, identity, and belonging in a globalised world. Quilliam stands for religious freedom, equality, human rights and democracy.
