Project description

The present project involves a study of the (acute) obstacles in the prevention of extremism within local policy. Three objectives are paramount: 1. First, to concretise and prioritise the needs and gaps in the supply from and to local policy concerning the approach to extremism. 2. Second, to check the needs and gaps against the existing offer. 3. Thirdly, to provide a practice-oriented offer that can be used in the field in case of acute or escalating problematic developments.
