PAVE Training Module 2

Section outline

• Select section Addressing Online Forms of Recruitment, Propaganda and Incitement to Violence

  Welcome to Training Module 2 of the Preventing and Addressing Violent Extremism (PAVE) project on how to recognize and address online forms of recruitment, propaganda and incitement to violence in your efforts to prevent or counter violent extremism in your context. In this module, we will explore key concepts on how online platforms can be utilized to recruit various individuals and groups to share propaganda and incite violence, directed specifically towards youth, policymakers, civil society and religious actors and institutions. Subsequently, we will highlight concepts surrounding media literacy and how to identify and recognize polarizing and/or radical narratives. Building upon these key concepts, you will be equipped with tangible ways in which you can construct effective and collaborative counter narratives through targeted messaging and dissemination that can be utilized with, and partnered on, between civil society, faith actors and institutions, and policymakers.
