Countering Violent Extremism and Risk Reduction A Guide to Programme Design and Evaluation

James Khalil and Martine Zeuthen, June 2016

Summary

The purpose of this report is to provide guidance to policy-makers and implementers of countering violent extremism (CVE) and risk reduction (RR, also referred to by others as de-radicalisation) programmes. While the examples provided are mostly from Africa, Asia and the Middle East, reflecting the authors’ professional experiences of programming in these regions, many of the tools and techniques presented will also be relevant to those operating in ‘the West’. CVE and RR provide two increasingly prominent frameworks for countering the influence of individuals and entities involved in violent extremism (VE).
