The members of O.C.T.A.V. build on their dialogue and discussions with security-practitionner in the fields of defense,
intelligence, justice and social action involved in contemporary forms of anti-terrorism. Closed-workshops (under Chatham House Rules) are
regularly organized. In the context of the latter, security professionals are invited to talk about their activities and the
difficulties they encounter. In alternation with research seminars, these meetings are to serve as a platform of ex-change and
circulation of ideas between the social universes (academia and security) that they interconnect.
