Responding to radicalisation: Safeguarding European Security
Radicalisation and violent extremism present significant challenges to the security, stability, and core values of the European Union and its Member States. These threats can escalate into violence and terrorism, erode democratic principles, and create regional instability.
At PPHS, we actively contribute to addressing these issues through targeted projects. Our initiatives focus on de-radicalising individuals, providing practitioner training, and promoting awareness of the challenges and the importance of evidence-based prevention actions.
