Wellbeing in Research on Violent Extremism
<p>In this episode, zeina ismail-allouche welcomes Mackenzie Hart, an emerging researcher whose personal journey and on-the-ground experience shape a thoughtful reflection on the newest frontiers of violent extremism and the wellbeing of those who study it. </p><p><br></p><p><strong>Recorded before the passing of Garth Davies</strong> and shared in his memory, this conversation is connected to his pioneering work on nihilistic extremism, and to the very foundations of CANSES, where connection and mutual support are not peripheral to research, but vital to sustaining it. </p><p> </p><p>Together, they explore: </p><ul><li>How the gap between the field and research can be bridged, by grounding research in its real impact on the ground.</li><li>The overlooked toll of studying PVE — desensitization, isolation, and the loss of real-time connection — and why building communities of practice is essential. </li><li>A conceptualization of nihilistic violent extremism that extends Garth’s reflections from our last episode, diving into why youth are increasingly preyed upon. </li></ul><p>An early-career researcher immersed in difficult content, Mackenzie Hart shares where she finds the light.</p>

In Memory of Garth Davies (1967-2026): An Esteemed Mentor and Voice in the Field of Prevention of Violent Extremism
<p>It is with profound sadness that we share this episode in memory of Garth Davies, who tragically passed away in March 2026. With the blessing of his loved ones, we have chosen to publish this conversation to honour his memory and legacy, and to share the depth of his passion for his work in the prevention field.</p><p>Garth was an Associate Professor in the School of Criminology at Simon Fraser University (SFU) and Director of the Canadian Network for Research on Security, Extremism, and Society (CANSES).</p><p>For over 25 years, he studied and wrote about terrorism, advising national security agencies, briefing the Integrated National Security Enforcement Team ("E" Division), the Canadian Security Intelligence Service, and Public Safety Canada, and testifying before the Canadian Parliament and the Standing Senate Committee on National Security and Defence. He was also a founding member, and later Director, of the Institute on Violence, Terrorism and Security at SFU. </p><p>Alongside his thorough work across many fields, Garth inspired hundreds of students and equipped a generation of researchers with the methodological tools to pursue their work with purpose. He helped policymakers and practitioners in the field engage more closely with the communities they served, with the aim of opening them to the realities and the needs of those communities.</p><p>In this episode, Garth shared, with humility, clarity, and care, an important reflection on:</p><ul><li>CANSES’s vision for the foundation of a network;</li><li>Nihilistic extremism, how it differs from ideologically driven forms of violence, the challenges it presents, and its targeting of young people online;</li><li>And what may be needed in policy and prevention, by embracing the generational work of rebuilding social narratives.</li></ul><p>Garth Davies’s message of hope in the closing minutes of the episode reflects how his legacy will live on in the field that he helped shape, and in the people he inspired throughout the years. He believed, strongly, that we could find our way back to one another as a society. CPN-PREV shares this conversation in that same belief, and with the hope of carrying his voice forward.</p>

Far-Right Movements in Quebec and the Ethics of Researching Extremism
<p>In this episode, Zeina Ismail-Allouche is joined by Audrey Gagnon, Assistant Professor at the University of Ottawa, for a thoughtful conversation about studying the far right from within one’s own community, as well as the ethical responsibilities that come with it. Hear them discuss:</p><ul><li>How the 2015 refugee crisis became a turning point that revealed the mainstreaming of far-right ideas in Canada and Quebec.</li><li>The role of national identity, conspiracy theories, and online narratives in driving exclusion, hostility, and the risk of violent action.</li><li>The overlooked challenges facing researchers in extremism studies — from repetitive exposure to violent ideologies to online harassment — and why protecting researcher well-being is essential to sustaining the field.</li></ul><p>Grounded in her own positionality as a researcher studying movements from within her community, Dr. Gagnon shares how personal journey and professional rigour intertwine — and why setting limits, understanding one’s identity, and protecting researcher well-being are not signs of weakness, but of wisdom. A personal and necessary conversation on how preparedness and self-knowledge can sustain the field for generations to come.</p><p>Music Credit: Rustic Ballad by Alexander Kakarada</p>
