The Conference, entitled Innovative Policies to Advance Security   Governance, will take place on the 22 January 2009 and is aimed to   brief the Member States, international and regional organizations and   civil society on the action undertaken by UNICRI’s Laboratory on   Security Governance and Counter-Terrorism to foster its security   governance approach in different thematic fields. 
  
  The event will be an opportunity to provide an overview of some of the   main activities developed by the Laboratory, including those in the area   of radicalization, urban security, major event security, cooperation   between public and private sectors for the protection of vulnerable   targets, and prevention of illicit trafficking of chemical, biological,   radiological and nuclear (CBRN) material.
