The 9/11 Memorial & Museum’s Winter/Spring 2021 public program season will kick off on Monday, February 8, and will cover a range of topics that address the ongoing impacts and continued resonance of the 9/11 and 1993 attacks, their historical context, and their aftermath.

The first program of this season will be “The Rise of Global Jihad” with Thomas Hegghammer, a senior research fellow at the Norwegian Defence Research Establishment. Other programs in our digital conversation series will reflect on the growing threat of domestic terrorism, the lasting significance of the destruction of the Bamiyan Buddhas in 2001, and the Abbottabad Papers.
