Manage the situation during and after an attack
Published
Although many efforts and measures are aimed at preventing and averting attacks, and protecting society from violent extremism and terrorism, society must also be prepared to manage a situation where an attack is or has been carried out.
Work in this area is aimed at ensuring that society has the necessary capability to intervene and stop an attack in progress. This work also aims to ensure that such crime’s consequences for society are limited, that victims of terrorism receive support and redress, and that perpetrators are arrested and prosecuted.
Objectives
- Society must be able to quickly intervene and stop an attack.
- Government authorities must be prepared to manage new types of attacks.
- Tools and collaboration for investigation and prosecution must be enhanced.
- Support for victims of terrorism, hate crime and criminality that threatens democracy must be developed.
