(New York, N.Y.) — Today, the Counter Extremism Project (CEP) announced the
addition ofAmbassador Edmund Fitton-Brown
<[link removed]>, a former
coordinator of the U.N. Security Council’s ISIL (Da’esh), al-Qaida, and Taliban
Sanctions Monitoring Team and British diplomat, to its Advisory Board. In his
position at the United Nations, Fitton-Brown succeeded CEP Senior Director Dr.
Hans-Jakob Schindler, and the two are regarded as principal authorities on ISIS
and al-Qaeda.



“Given his broad, in-depth expertise on terrorist groups in the Middle East,
we are thrilled that Edmund Fitton-Brown is joining CEP,” stated CEO Ambassador
Mark D. Wallace. “We look forward to the benefit of his ongoing counsel on
Afghan and Middle East security policy.”



A globally recognized expert on counterterrorism, Afghanistan, and Middle
Eastern issues, Fitton-Brown’s joining of the Advisory Board was welcomed by
CEP President Fran Townsend. “His experience monitoring sanctioned individuals,
groups, and entities subject to the U.N.’s Consolidated List directly
corresponds with CEP’s own mission to combat the growing threat from extremists
in all forms.”



“CEP’s primary aim to help develop a more secure global society through the
education of the public policymakers and the private sector about the
everchanging threat of extremism is more important now than ever,” said
Fitton-Brown. “I look forward to working with such a distinguished group of
experts and policymakers and to supporting CEP’s work combatting extremism.”



During his career in the British Foreign Service, Fitton-Brown’s postings
included Finland, Egypt, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Italy, the United Arab Emirates,
and Yemen. He has also traveled extensively across conflict zones throughout
his career. Presently, he resides in Austin, Texas.
