Prevent Radicalization among Youth

About
Extremely
Creative

The Extremely creative campaign is part of the Extremely EUnited Project, which aims to prevent radicalism among youth and step up resilience in our societies. The European dimension of the action is ensured by the presence in the consortium of 14 partners from 9 European countries, which already have professional expertise in the field of deradicalization and intercultural dialogue. Extremely Creative arose from the dream to create a common social platform for all the young, in which they can express their creativity, share their convictions and ideas for the development of a tolerant and inclusive society, where everyone finds his/her place.

The youngsters themselves will be the leaders of the campaign as they will be entrusted with the creation of video contents, cartoons, comics and much more, that in the end will be published on the social platform. The partners who will be involved in the campaign are the following: Intercultural Dialogue Platform (Belgium), Platform INS (Netherlands), Jeunactio (France), Platforme de Paris (France) and Kosovar Centre for Security Studies (Kosovo).

• Extremely Eunited: (website link) Extremely EUnited is a project funded by the European Commission aiming to prevent the spread of radicalization among youth in most of the European countries. The initiative starts from the need to safeguard the lives and the future of younger generations, who run the risk of being lured by extremist propaganda and whose innocence is exploited for criminal purposes. In doing that, Extremely EUnited appeals to those values of brotherhood and freedom which all European societies share and which represent the indispensable conditions for building a peaceful and cohesive society, in which there is no place for hatred and fanatism. The European afflatus of the project is mirrored in the number of countries involved: Belgium, Netherlands, Italy, Spain, France, Hungary, Kosovo, Sweden and Estonia.

Due to the prominent rhetoric displayed by terrorists in the virtual world, the project will assign a preponderant role to the action on-line, by creating videos, podcasts, drawings and other tools to empower the voices of young people who spread peaceful messages and promote values of mutual respect and empathy. Moreover, in line with the objective and scope of the project, off-line events will be organized to offer young people a space to express their creativity and favour social interactions. Our approach is innovative as it not only targets youth as a potential vulnerable audience, but it also allows young people to play an active role in countering violent extremism by giving them the tools to promote peace, tolerance and fundamental European values.
