CIP Institute | International CIP Event, June 16, 2017 in Lisboa

I hope this event will result in a few good discussions and new insights in the domains of crisis communication and crisis management. I am eager to accustom the underlying theory as well.

Bram Monnier – The Netherlands
One of the more enlightening events bringing risk and crisis management professionals together.

Dalila Antunes – Portugal
I'm looking forward to discuss risk mitigation and cross sector dependencies, prevention and resilience.

Attendee – Belgium
I don't want to miss this chance to exchange knowledge and experience with many crisis managers from multiple backgrounds on an international level.

Attendee – France
My main expectation is an open dialogue regarding the mechanisms of maintaining business continuity in crisis situations.

Karin Vanden Berghe – Belgium
It will be great to explore different perspectives and exchange thoughts on team interaction processes as well as addressing the needs for crisis management teams, for training initiatives and for future research.

Dr. Selma van der Haar – The Netherlands
For me, this conference is about defining and learning the fundamentals of how to handle crises.

Mimi Van Meir – Belgium
I would like to participate and learn from the discussions, while establishing a collaboration between the CIP Institute and the NITIM network (Networks, Information Technology & Innovation Management).

Joseph Pollack – Norway
My expectation is to discover best practices and applications in industries that are similar and different to mine.

Koen Luyckx – Belgium
I am attending to improve my knowledge on crisis management and communication and to approach this interesting field of work from a more scientific perspective as well.

Attendee – France
Attending this conference will definitely increase my knowledge about crisis communication and clear the path for new insightful experiences.

Geert Buyse – Belgium
Along many expectations, I am particularly looking forward to fruitful discussions about the complexity of our work, future developments and new scientific insights.

Frank Vergeer – The Netherlands
As one of the outcomes, I hope we might succeed to find more effective ways to train people in crisis management and communication.

Attendee – Belgium
I really look forward to participate in the foundation of this expanding network.

Dr. Selma van der Haar – The Netherlands
Looking around us, the need for being able to handle all kinds of crises is becoming more urgent every day. I'd like to see very practical actions as an outcome of this event, without too much theoretical discussion.

Wim Leybaert – Belgium
At the conference, I hope to find inspiration for improving our crisis exercises and to come back with innovative ideas to further enhance our crisis work processes.

Attendee – France
I would love to see the conference resulting in a framework for the many procedures, interactions, processes, training and exercises needed to create a solid foundation for dealing with crises.

Karin Vanden Berghe – Belgium
In my perspective, the conference is about knowledge - about interactive processes - that can help us in a crisis situation.

Sindy Kinar – Belgium

Christophe Busch

Director General at Kazerne Dossin (Belgium)

Radical connections: Rethinking cumulative radicalization from tree to rhizome.

About the Keynote

In theoretical modeling collective violence - like mass murder, genocide, terrorism - we see a gradual shift from mono-causal theories to patterns and typologies, to the recent processual approaches. In analyzing the complex interplay of (f)actors that lead to cumulative radicalization it becomes clear that the needed approach to combat violent extremism will be a multi-agency one. This lecture models collective violence as a living complex adaptive system with many entrances and exits (rhizome) and advances some essential rules to focus on.

About the Speaker

Christophe Busch is the general director of Kazerne Dossin: memorial, museum and expert center on Holocaust and Human Rights and the founder-connector of UFUNGU: network on radicalization & polarization in Belgium. He holds a master in Criminology (University of Ghent) and a master in Holocaust and Genocide studies (University of Amsterdam) and is currently finalizing his PhD research (UvA) on the complexity of collective violence.
The last years he is mainly engaged in the field of terrorism studies (university of Saint Andrews) and focusses with the UFUNGU network of professionals on the emergence of deradicalization/ disengagement and depolarization initiatives. He gives several lectures on the topics of collective violence, human rights, perpetrator behavior, radicalization, derad programs and risk taxation/management for officials within security and correctional departments.
He’s the chairman of the expert group on radicalization within the Flemish departments of education and welfare.
