About
This workshop aims to raise awareness, discuss responses and share best practices to ensure that all measures taken to prevent and counter violent extremism and radicalization that lead to terrorism (VERLT) are human rights compliant, based on the rule of law, and on democratic values. Further, it will explore how the use of communications technologies can advance efforts to counter VERLT on the Internet.
