Deradicalization Programs

Deradicalization programs aim to reintegrate individuals who have adopted extreme beliefs or engaged in violent extremism back into society. They typically involve psychological counseling, education, and dialogue to challenge harmful ideas, promote critical thinking, and encourage positive social connections. The goal is to reduce the individual's willingness to commit violence and foster understanding within the community. These programs are often part of broader efforts to prevent terrorism and promote social cohesion, working with both former extremists and community members to build resilience against radicalization.
