Gordon Clubb is an Associate Professor at the University of Leeds. He has written several publications on de-radicalization and has been regularly invited to present research to international practitioner audiences. He has conducted research on the role of "Formers" in countering violent extremism and peacebuilding.

He is also an Associate Director at the International CyberCrime Research Centre at Simon Fraser University and a Research Fellow at the VOX-Pol Network of Excellence.

Didarul Islam is an Assistant Professor at the Department of World Religions and Culture, University of Dhaka. He is a commonwealth scholar pursuing his Doctoral Studies at the School of Politics and International Studies, University of Leeds. His doctoral research focuses on how a norm receiving state frames and formulates Countering Violent Extremism (CVE) policy from a public policy perspective. His research interests include CVE, counterterrorism, radicalization, international security, public policy, migration, and religion and politics.
