Case Study 3: Preventing Online Violent Youth Radicalisation: Pilots in the UK, Cyprus, Greece, Belgium, and France

Description

This chapter presents a multi‑country case study (UK, Cyprus, Greece, Belgium, France) on preventing online violent youth radicalisation, based on the RADEX project (2020–2022). It examines how young people encounter extremist content online, how COVID‑19 accelerated digital radicalisation pathways, and how restorative justice and positive psychology can strengthen prevention. The chapter concludes with a curriculum for practitioners aimed at early detection, resilience‑building, and non‑punitive intervention.
