About The prevention of radicalisation
YEIP - THE YOUTH EMPOWERMENT AND INNOVATION PROJECT, a 3-year Erasmus+ funded project, is trying to design a positive policy prevention framework for tackling and preventing marginalisation and violent radicalisation among young people, constructing and testing innovative policy intervention models, founded on the principles of the Good Lives Model and positive psychology. Anziani e non solo, YEIP’s Italian partner together with Liguria Region, in collaboration with CRID-Interdepartmental Research Centre on Discrimination and vulnerabilities, will host the opening international conference. It will be an occasion to present and debate the project’s results and share experiences and knowledge.
