In 2008 the City of Amsterdam, together with the cities of Birmingham, The Hague, Essen, Rotterdam and Utrecht, began a project on counter-radicalisation co-financed by the European Commission. This project is known as ‘Recognising Radicalisation’, or ‘RecoRa’.
The above-mentioned cities have been developing counter-radicalisation tools for the last couple of years now. This year, we have worked together to evaluate current action- and training programs in order to learn from each other and to provide other European authorities with coordinated recommendations. The result is a ‘solution matrix’ in which specific activities are linked to the various components of the radicalisation process.
For more information, please see the project summary.
This project is financed by the cities of Amsterdam, Birmingham, Essen, Rotterdam, the Hague, Utrecht and the European Commission.
The project has concluded and the Final report is now available.
To conclude the RecoRa project the six partner cities organised a final conference on the 27th and 28th of November (2008) in Amsterdam, where the ‘solution matrix’ was presented. Leading up to this, the partner shared their thinking, activities and their dilemmas with attendants. Special attention was given to a number of people sharing their personal experiences with radicalisation processes and their recommendations on dealing with current ones.
