CPD – How to Prevent Radicalisation

With many ideologues in this world, radicalisation may occur on the surface. People who have been brainwashed because of this are not happening in one night. That is a gradual process they have continued for some moments. That person may adopt extreme political, social, or religious beliefs. The result of this can be seen as violent and out of societal norms.

The worst part of radicalisation is it can lead to terrorism. Anyone is at risk of being a part of this group because many factors can influence it. One of those people is young people because they are still naive to enter the real world. They may not realise what is happening to them until their brain is doctrine.

What is radicalisation?

Radicalisation is an ideology that promotes extreme viewpoints against certain groups. These viewpoints may occur in various channels, even on social media. More than that, the ideology they share can lead to extremist action. That can make people become terrorists over time. This is because their actions and mindset are usually different from societal norms. That makes people need to be more aware of it.

In addition to radicalisation, social and psychological factors play a vital role in this. A group of people who feel like being marginalised can be easier to get caught by these extreme people. This is because they seek a sense of their true identity and find that extremist groups can help them. They only make everyone's ideology unaware of that action.

Combating this action needs collaboration between the government and organisations. The focus is to prevent their idea from spreading in the community. That includes intervention when they first arrived in the community. For that reason, community leaders need to engage in helping people to become more aware of this kind of action.  Therefore, all parties need to take part to prevent this.

Admission Criteria

In the CPD – How to Prevent Radicalisation, there is no prior specific knowledge to take part in this course. Participants just need a willingness to engage in open dialogue, even on sensitive topics. Furthermore, people with a background in social work and law will find this course beneficial for them. This is because they can apply it directly to their job task.

Signs of radicalisation

Signs of radicalisation may vary among individuals, depending on the ideology they believe in. This is because each extremist group has their characteristics. A common thing among people who have extremist viewpoints is they tend to change their appearance. This becomes common because it is their characteristic. Even though not all people have this, it can indicate someone who needs support. Here it is:

1. Obsession with ideology: Individuals who have been brainwashed by ideology tend to have too much interest and obsession with specific issues.
2. Conspiracy theories: This is one of the ideological signs that they believe in extreme conspiracy theories and promote them.
3. Increased isolation: They also tend to withdraw themselves from family and their regular activities.
4. Sudden changes in appearance: This also can indicate radicalisation because they are adopting a new style with a specific ideology.

There are more signs of radicalisation out there. These characteristics and more will be discussed thoughtfully in this programme later. Therefore, you need to claim your seat first to have full access to this course. This is because it is essential to recognise those traits for future prevention in all communities.

How to prevent radicalisation

Radicalisation is an important concern in many communities. Preventing this need to gather all community leaders to foster a supportive environment. Especially people who are at high risk of getting caught by these extremist groups. Furthermore, this course is available to help people prevent this kind of action. This is because it can harm many people in the future if we don't move to take action. Here are the topics we will cover later in the session:

• Having education and awareness
• Promoting positive role models
• Enhance digital literacy
• Providing access to support

We understand that providing clear thinking about this matter is necessary to prevent this. This course will give individuals the ability to look at everything critically. Especially when it comes to something new to them. Even in social media or rumours, they will easily recognise a strange thing. That becomes the goal of this course to make people more aware of this kind of action.

3 steps for raising concerns about radicalisation

Raising the concerns of radicalisation becomes necessary to ensure safety for all. This is because the extremist group can harm other people in the future. Especially when they are becoming an unwanted person, like a terrorist. Therefore, engaging in a sensitive conversation becomes essential for people to be more aware of this kind of action. To know better of it, these are the three steps we are going to discuss:

1. Identify the warning signs
2. Engage in a sensitive conversation
3. Reporting to appropriate channels

Those three steps we are going to discuss will help people take note of strange movements. This will also help people who indicate extremist viewpoints by having early support from professionals. They can also get early support from their families. With this in mind, consider having a consultation in advance with community leaders to get advice before you take action. This is because mistakes may lead you to catch yourself into those extremist ideologies.
