Strengthening a comprehensive approach to preventing and counteracting radicalisation based on a universal evIdeNce-based moDEl for Evaluation of raDicalisation prevention and mitigation

INDEED aims to strengthen the knowledge, capabilities and skills of PVE/CVE and De-radicalisation first-line practitioners and policy makers in designing, planning, implementation and in evaluating initiatives in the field, based on evidence-based approach.

INDEED builds from the state-of-the-art, utilising the scientific and practical strengths of recent activities - enhancing them with complementary features to drive advancements and curb a growing rise of radical views and violent behaviour threatening security.

The INDEED methodological framework is based on the '5I' approach i.e 5 project phases: Identify; Involve; Innovate; Implement; Impact.

At the core of INDEED's work methodology is an interdisciplinary and participatory approach, which includes the co-creation of individual project phases and implementing them with the close engagement of multi-sectoral stakeholders.

The creation of SMART Hubs (Stakeholder Multisectoral Anti-Radicalisation Teams) as part of INDEED is intended to facilitate this process.The selected results of the project are:1)The Universal Evidence-Based Model (EBEM) for evaluation of radicalisation prevention and mitigation; 2)A practical EBEM-based Evaluation Tool;3)A collection of user-friendly repositories (repositories of radicalisation factors and pathways into radicalisation; factors strengthening resilience to radicalisation; repositories of evidence-based practices) for practical use by practitioners and policy makers;4)Targeted curricula and trainings (offline/online);5)Lessons Learnt and Policy recommendations.All results will be integrated and openly accessible in the INDEED multilingual Toolkit for practitioners and policy makers in the field for the entire lifecycle of PVE/CVE and De-radicalisation initiatives, from design to evaluation.

INDEED promotes the EUs values and principles; heeding multi-agency and cross-sectoral methods, including gender mainstreaming, societal dimensions and fundamental rights.
