Description

This paper aims to summarise and compare the findings that emerged from the research that the seven YEIP Research
Partners carried out in their respective locations. These partners’ research is presented in the large version of the
book, and has been written in their native languages. They form part of YEIP’s work package (WP) 1.
The main objective of WP1 was to analyse the current state of the art in terms of innovative GLM-based and restorative
justice measures for dealing with violent radicalisation of young people in Europe. This work package represents
the first building block for reaching our ultimate objective. This can be summarised as developing and rolling out an
innovative, youth-led policy measure that will help address and prevent the factors that can lead to young people’s
social exclusion and radicalisation.
