The Touro Institute on Human Rights and the Holocaust co-hosted an event with One Heart Global, a non-profit organization established to bring survivors of terrorism together globally to heal.
Sarri Singer, Co-founder and Director, and others members of the organization participated in the event. The lecture was entitled “Combating Terrorism and the United Nations.” The guest speaker was Dr. David Scharia, legal expert, U.N. Counter Terrorism Executive Directorate (CTED), a special political mission of the U.N. Security Council. Dr. Scharia gave an overview of the Security Council’s work in the field of counter-terrorism and an update on the operations of the Counter-Terrorism Committee (CTC). A number of the representatives of One Heart Global shared with us their moving first-hand encounters with terrorism, making the lecture and discussion both meaningful and informative.
