Revision as of 16:54, 25 March 2020

Families Against Terrorism and Extremism advertised itself as the 'biggest grassroots anti-extremism network in the world.'[1] It appears to have existed between March 2016 and around July 2017, when, presumably, the funding ran out. The domain name findfate.org was registered on 9 May 2016 using the anonymous 'Domains by proxy' service.[2]

FATE is also claimed to be:

one of the rare straight forward organisations involving families directly touched by terrorism that started powerful campaigns targeting vulnerable youths. Thanks to numerous surveys and in-depth interviews with a hundred families, FATE published a report showing that faced by a failure of any top down government approach, the civil society and particularly families are key to countering extremism.[1]

In fact it was a front group set up by the Quilliam Foundation at the instigation of the US State Department, as Quilliam disclosed in testimony before a congressional hearing in 2018.[3]


FATE worked with the PR agency Verbalisation in 2016[4] and later with a spinout from the firm called Global Influence.[5]

Members

claimed membership of FATE as of 27 February 2018.[6]
