"Yusuf has an MSc in International Security and Global Governance from [the] University of London."

Activities

Desai accompanied Harold Elletson (also of the IfS) to the MidSummit conference in Reykjavik in 2017.

Opinions

“I would very strongly recommend review of current Green Paper plans and strategies to address social cohesion in order to combat UK and global radicalization issues and threats to state security. There is little precedent for the scale of action needed over the next decade. The dangers are clear and immediate to those who are involved in safeguarding life and limb and wellbeing of British society.”
Yusuf Desai (2018)
