Ex Post Paper: RAN EDU Kick-Off Meeting
Author(s):
The RAN Education (EDU) Working Group1 was set up in 2015 and kicked-off on 25 and 26 November in Prague (CZ). This Working Group focuses on better equipping teachers and the school system so they can play a crucial role in preventing radicalisation. The aim is to raise awareness of the topic, but also to empower and build capacity to prevent and deal with radicalisation in educational settings. RAN EDU takes stock of the legacy of the RAN Prevent Working Group and the Manifesto for Education2 – Educators and Schools, that was published after a big meeting on education3 . In the Manifesto it is decided on the prevent strategy and choices, based on the voices of 90 educators.
