KENYA’S APPROACH IN COUNTERING VIOLENT EXTREMISM

Summary

This study examined Kenya‘s approach of Counter Violent Extremism (CVE) in achieving the intended objectives of preventing radicalization and recruitment of individuals into active participation in violent extremist activities. The study found out that broadening CVE approaches in Kenya could work beyond state-centric interventions that allow a broader space for myriads of actors. The role of the Kenyan government needs to adapt a collective vision and engage community actors to lead positive and appropriate interventions.
