Radical Online Education
The project addresses the issue of radicalization and recruitment of youth for combat in war zones.
This recruitment often happens through the internet and through social media.
Radical Online Educationist is a 20-month European project, co-funded by the European Commission's Erasmus + (KA2) program. The project addresses the issue of radicalization and recruitment of youth for combat in war zones. This recruitment often happens through the internet and through social media.
That's why "Radical Online Education" wants to be pro-active against Internet radicalization and find an appropriate response to this threat. The project is aimed at trainers and social workers who want to improve their digital skills, learn effective online engagement and be trained in the targeted use of information and communication technologies.
As part of this innovative project, an e-learning training program will be developed so that trainers and social workers can use social networks to detect signs of digital radicalization early and to stimulate critical thinking. Furthermore, a digital best practice guide will be compiled, which should include expertise in the field of radicalization prevention, all information and ideas exchanged by the participating organizations and advice for establishing critical thinking.
