Transnational Review Panel
Enhancing Radicalisation Prevention:
A Review of the IN2PREV Project’s
Developing Risk Assessment Tool
The IN2PREV project aims to prevent radicalisation by effectively integrating refugees and asylum seekers into host societies. By providing law enforcement agencies (LEAs) and non-governmental organisations (NGOs) with innovative tools and training, this transnational initiative addresses the challenges and vulnerabilities associated with radicalisation processes within these vulnerable populations
A key development of the IN2PREV project is the Frontline Extremism Vulnerability Risk – Structured Evaluation Screening (FEVR-SES) tool. This tool assesses both the risks of radicalisation and protective factors, aiding practitioners in designing and implementing targeted interventions. It evaluates various risk factors, including social isolation, exposure to extremist ideologies, and economic instability.
On June 18th, 2024, the IN2PREV project hosted an online transnational and cross-sectoral review panel to evaluate the FEVR-SES tool. Experts, practitioners, and stakeholders gathered to assess its effectiveness, usability, and application across different professional environments. The review panel provided a comprehensive evaluation through diverse perspectives, fostering critical feedback and collaborative enhancement.
The review panel featured a detailed presentation of the FEVR-SES tool, including its concept, target users, and primary features. A live demonstration showcased its practical application, followed by structured discussions that facilitate real-time responses through interactive platforms.
Participants explored the tool’s functionality, assessing its ability to identify vulnerability risk factors and support tailored interventions for individuals at risk. The discussions also delved into the sustainability and long-term viability of the FEVR-SES tool, emphasising its role in ongoing radicalisation prevention strategies.
The review panel was crucial to gather actionable insights from participants, highlighting the tool's strengths and suggesting areas for improvement. Those insights are being considered in the tool refining to better meet the needs of frontline professionals.
The IN2PREV FEVR-SES review panel marked a significant milestone in advancing the project's commitment to developing effective tools for identifying and preventing radicalisation. The IN2PREV project plans to incorporate these inputs into its broader strategy, aiming to enhance the capabilities of European practitioners in their crucial work with individuals seeking refuge or asylum.
