Dr. Emilie El Khoury is a postdoctoral fellow at Queen's University's Centre for International Policy and Defence (CIDP). Her expertise lies in the field of anthropology, with a specific focus on the Middle East and the Maghreb. Her research areas encompass war, religion, politics, and their application to topics such as terrorism, security, gender dynamics, and the processes leading to radicalization and violence. Her doctoral research (completed in 2022) focuses on women's experiences and the situations that promote or compromise their security in times of war and peace. On the strength of her field experience in Lebanon, Belgium and Canada concerning terrorism and Muslim populations, she will develop research, within the CIDP, on the impacts of counterinsurgency and counterterrorism efforts, including their strategies and repercussions, on local communities. Her focus will be particularly on the experiences of women in the context of NATO operations. In recent years, she has lectured in French and English on topics such as religion, war, the Middle East and Maghreb, refugees, cultural diversity, and gender, among others. Her courses have been given at various Canadian universities, including the University Laval, the University of Alberta, and the University of Lethbridge. Dr. El Khoury also holds the position of Senior Fellow at the Canadian Institute for Far-Right Studies (CIFRS).
