Empower individuals and communities to become self-reliant, create self-sustaining change and reduce dependency on external support
Description
​

IAHV addresses gaps in both the analysis and practice of countering violent extremism, broadening a focus on prevention and interdiction to include effective transformation of individuals, groups and wider conflict dynamics involved in or affected by radicalisation.
 
IAHV programmes transform attitudes, mindsets, well-being and behaviour, inspire and train participants to use non-violent means to achieve legitimate needs, and mobilise them to become effective peacebuilders in their own communities. Recognising that both external environmental and internal psychological factors are crucial in the prevention and transformation of violence and extremism, IAHV peacebuilding programmes focus, in specific, on personal and interpersonal aspects.
 
These programmes are appropriate across all personality types, ideologies and contexts, and across all stages, from prevention to intervention, rehabilitation and reintegration. They work with all individuals and communities directly or indirectly, actively or passively affected by violence and extremism, including: former extremists, ex-combatants, militants, prisoner populations, gangs, convicted terrorists, radicalised youth, affected communities and relatives, social/youth/prevention workers, survivors of violence/terrorist attacks.  
​

[1] Although IAHV was founded in 1997 in Geneva, Switzerland, by Sri Sri Ravi Shankar and other global leaders, its most active branches are in Europe are the Netherlands, Germany, UK, Belgium, Denmark and Italy.
