Project ID 218TUN1000

Violence that leads to different kinds of extremism and radicalization is a social phenomenon facilitated by multiple factors that are often intertwined. It calls into question the relationships that individuals have with the traditional forms of socialization that frame the community of citizens, protects individuals and creates the conditions necessary for their development and fulfillment. It is not enough to counter violence - it must be prevented, and this calls for forms of 'soft power,' to prevent a threat driven by distorted interpretations of culture, hatred, and ignorance. No one is born violent- they are made and fueled (see ProDoc).
