	'''PEGIDA''' (Patriotische Europaer Gegen die Islamisierung des Abendlandes, ''Patriotic Europeans against Islamisation of the West'') is a German patriotic organization tied to the Conservative and New Right sphere of German Politics. It focuses particularly on fighting the spread of Islam within Germany and German-speaking countries, with emphasis on its effects on public life. PEGIDA states its aims as refusing "...to allow the spread of activities by groups such as [ISIS] and [al-Qaeda] in Europe..." and to ensure that all "German children can grow up in a cosmopolitan and friendly nation."
