Podcast Series: Exploring Extremism - Are communication interventions effective in preventing and counterring violent extremism?

Description

The efficacy of strategic communications interventions for preventing violent extremism has been increasingly questioned by implementing institutions and donors in recent years. The debate has swirled around program design, effectiveness and how to measure impact. Vast sums of donor money have poured into communications programming. But criticism has been leveled at interventions that lack robust research into local conditions, that are overly replicated across varying geographic and political contexts, and that are poorly integrated into larger prevention and stabilization programming.
