TSAS is dedicated to providing Canadians, and others, with expert information and comment on events, policies, and practices related to incidents of terrorism and violent extremism, and the efforts to prevent and counter terrorism and violent extremism. Media representatives are encouraged to search the database of nearly 300 TSAS Research Affiliates to secure information on individuals who may be able to assist them. The expertise of these affiliates is diverse and wide-ranging, covering many topics related to our five primary research areas: Terrorism and Violent Extremism, Radicalization, Security and Counter-Terrorism, Countering Violent Extremism, and Societal Impact and Consequences.
