Radicals in the Prisons a Global Problem

States around the world have been devoting increased resources to the critical task of managing violent extremist prisoners (VEPs) to preventing further radicalisation to violence while also supporting disengagement, rehabilitation and reintegration. As an emerging field of practice, there is a need for policymakers, practitioners, as well as experts in civil society, academia and others, to share good practices and lessons learned.Drawing from recent national and international initiatives and projects aimed at preventing violent extremism in both custodial and non-custodial settings, the side event will focus on potential ways to balance security needs while maintaining respect for international human rights standards. The event will feature a panel discussion composed of experts and practitioners with extensive experience in addressing these issues.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/depictions-media--4208927/support.
