Youth Against Violence and Extremism Project

The Youth Against Violence and Extremism project aimed to strengthen the capacity of young people to play an active role in preventing and countering violence and extremism in their communities and learning institutions in Kwale County. Specifically, the project improved the effectiveness of grassroots youth leaders and youth-led organizations working to promote safety and security, enhanced trust between law enforcement and the younger generation, and led to effective collaboration and partnerships between youth and national and county government in addressing localised drivers and root causes of violence and extremism.
