Leadership in Counter Terrorism Alumni Association
Welcome to the Leadership in Counter Terrorism Alumni Association (LinCT-AA) website.
LinCT-AA is a non-profit separate affiliate of the International Leadership in Counter Terrorism (LinCT) Program with a principle purpose to promote personal and professional development, networking, exchange of good practice and global thinking of Counter Terrorism Professionals from both law enforcement and intelligence agencies. The Association works with key academic research centres and leading professionals in relevant fields of expertise to continually develop and inform successful and sustainable partnerships. These relationships work effectively for the benefit and protection of communities across the world.
Each year, the Association hosts reconventions of its members and affiliates and is partnered and supported by some of the world’s largest private sector organisations. We have experienced fantastic conference events for many years across the world through regional events and as an Alumni we come together at our two annual LinCT-AA Counter Terrorism practitioners’ conferences. These have been enormously successful in the past in Los Angeles, New York, Toronto, Melbourne, Sydney, London and Las Vegas, and they continue to generate much thought and joint thinking across the counter terrorism community.
Our most recent Spring 2024 conference, hosted in Toronto, was another successful event. The next LinCT-AA Conference will be held in Gold Cost, Queensland Australia in November 2024. Dates for the Spring 2025 Conference in Ireland, will be available soon. All relevant details regarding upcoming conferences will be posted on this website.
Just a reminder, this website provides important information about the LinCT-AA business, valuable links to key counter terrorism articles and partner associations along with details of membership, the opportunity to network with colleagues and details on related upcoming events. Our role in responding to the terrorism risk worldwide has not diminished and I seek your active support via the Alumni in doing so.
