The Auckland Extreme Violence Summit is part of our 2026 series, delivering advanced insights into the developmental pathways, warning behaviours, and prevention of extreme violence. This full-day event brings together leading experts to examine how grievance, ideology, and behavioural escalation intersect to produce targeted acts of harm.
This event explores serious and extreme violence with a focus on understanding how individuals move from grievance development to violent action. Across the day, presenters will unpack behavioural warning signs, escalation indicators, investigative decision-making, and prevention strategies grounded in both structured risk assessment and public health principles.
