No child in school today was alive for the 9/11 terrorist attacks and that is why Oxford school pupils are invited to an online summit launched by education charity SINCE 9/11.
SINCE 9/11 aims to work with thousands of teenagers to educate them on the atrocities of terror attacks since 2001, including the recent horrific Islamist terrorist attacks in Paris, Nice and Vienna, as well as the white supremacist terrorist attacks on the mosques in Christchurch in 2019 and the synagogue in Pittsburgh in 2018.

The summit on December 10, will have a host of speakers from a relative of a victim of the attacks, to leading educators on countering extremism. There will be opportunities for students to ask questions. The summit is in association with research being carried out by UCL Institute of Education on behalf of SINCE 9/11.
