Together for Safety: 21 Ways Forward 2021

The Together for Safety webinars were launched in January 2021 as a joint venture between the Strong Cities Network, led by the Institute for Strategic Dialogue, and Nordic Safe Cities. As a series of online talks to tackle pressing urban safety and security challenges with a key focus on addressing hate, polarisation and extremism across the Nordics and in cities around the world, they spotlighted mayors and city leaders, policymakers, practitioners, youth, civil society and subject matter experts who presented ways that we can work together for a safer, more resilient future for our cities and communities.

This summary condenses some of the key findings and recommendations from more than 40 speakers into 21 succinct ‘ways forward’ for our global audience of city leaders, policymakers, practitioners, youth workers and other stakeholders.
