RAN CSEP BRIEFING: COMMIT – Communication Campaign against extremism and radicalisation

The objective of COMMIT is to dissuade a susceptible and vulnerable audience from extremism, radicalisation and terrorism by providing them with the skills needed to co-develop and disseminate alternative narratives that promote democratic values, tolerance and cooperation, and also by equipping them with the competences needed to identify and resist online content of intolerance and violence.

The target audience of this project is young people (13-25 years), university students of communication, and civil society organisations (CSOs), media professionals and other stakeholders. The project consists of a Europe-wide campaign and campaigns specifically targeted at young people in Italy, Austria, The Netherlands and Greece.

This paper follows a briefing structure, in which it summarises the campaign, the main achievements of the project, the lessons learned on online campaigning in preventing and countering violent extremism (P/CVE), and includes links to several campaign messages.
