Presented here are two recent PREVEX publications from Work Package 8, a cross-regional background study and a policy brief comparing the EU and other stakeholders’ prevention strategy towards violent extremism in the Balkans and the broader MENA region
D8 Background study – Cross-regional comparison of ‘DOs and DON’Ts’ in the EU’s PVE measures
This report, a background study, presents the research findings of a cross-societal comparison of PREVEX-related regions, with the aim of providing ideas about what has been successful and what has proven detrimental to the EU’s preventing violent extremism (PVE) efforts. The report is based on research that was initially amalgamated into four separate background papers, some of which have also been presented at major conferences.
D8.1 Policy brief – Comparing the EU and other stakeholders’ prevention strategy towards violent extremism in the Balkans and the broader MENA region
This policy brief offers a cross-regional comparison of PREVEX findings regarding the efficacity of the EU’s PVE efforts. Based upon an amalgamation of PREVEX partners’ policy briefs over the Balkans (D5.1), the Maghreb/Sahel (D6.1) and the Middle East (D7.1), two reports on respectively EU’s policies and instruments for PVE (D4.1) and the implementation of these (D4.2), and the aforementioned background study (D8), the policy brief offers a set of recommendations to the EU.
