The changes reflect Indonesia's repatriation efforts, prosecutions in Kosovo and India, and measures aimed at rehabilitation and reintegration in Germany, among others. A number of foreign terrorist fighters, including those from France and Chechnya, remain active in the region; these numbers were also included in the FTF Knowledge Hub. All together data for 14 countries have been updated, including for Australia, Belgium, Egypt, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Kosovo, Morocco, Russia, Spain, Tunisia, the United Kingdom and Uzbekistan. New resources, including policy reports and journal articles, have been added to 16 country pages.
About the FTF Knowledge Hub
The Foreign Terrorist Fighters Knowledge Hub (FTFKH) is an open-access database concerning states’ responses to so-called ‘foreign terrorist fighters’, or as defined by United Nations Security Council Resolution 2178 (2014): ‘individuals who travel to a State other than their States of residence or nationality for the purpose of the perpetration, planning, or preparation of, or participation in, terrorist acts or the providing or receiving of terrorist training, including in connection with armed conflict’. The website provides comprehensive and detailed country-specific information about FTFs who have travelled to Syria or Iraq from 36 countries. The FTFKH contains FTF-related data, administrative and criminal measures, as well as rehabilitation and prevention policies. The FTFKH is designed as a resource that can be used by policy makers, practitioners, academics, journalists and students.
