December 7, 2012 | Amid the dramatic upheavals caused by the "Arab Spring," as well as rising levels of religious persecution worldwide and the continued salience of religion-related terrorism, critical policy issues have emerged concerning the relationships between religious freedom, violent religious extremism, and constitutional reform.

The Religious Freedom Project (RFP) of Georgetown University and the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF) hosted a policy-oriented discussion of two independently-conducted studies, each with direct relevance to policy thinkers and policy makers.

The RFP presented key findings from its detailed study of the links between religious freedom and violent extremism. USCIRF presented its comparative study of constitutions in Muslim-majority and other OIC member countries, and discussed both the results of constitutional variation and key implications for U.S. policy-makers.
