On December 3-4, 2025, under the auspices of Russia's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Moscow will host the 2025 BRICS+ Counter-Terrorism Conference titled “National and Regional Counter-Terrorism Strategies amid Emerging Security Challenges and Threats”.

The event will bring together representatives of BRICS+ competent authorities, civil society, and academic circles engaged in extensive research on counter-terrorism and counter-extremism. Experts from the UN, CIS, SCO, and CSTO will also take part in the discussions.

The discussion, inter alia, is centered around countering the financing of terrorism, the use of modem information and communication technologies for illegal purposes, combating extremism and attempts to radicalize population. The delegates will separately focus on various theoretical and methodological aspects of the eradication of terrorism, exchange assessments of threats to security at the national, regional and global levels in the context of current geopolitical realities, and share their accumulated experience and effective counter-terrorism practices.

The Conference is designed to complement the joint efforts of the association Member countries undertaken within the BRICS Counter-Terrorism Working Group (CTWG) and to further strengthen relevant cooperation on the solid basis of the BRICS Counter-Terrorism Strategy (2020), the BRICS Counter-Terrorism Action Plan (2021), and the CTWG Position Paper (2024).
