LIAISE 2 project publishes final products
Together with the Generalitat de Catalunya (Department of Justice) and Efus (European Forum for Urban Security), CEP is pleased to publish one of the products generated within the framework of the European project LIAISE 2 (Local Institutions Against Extremism). It is a booklet that consists of a rigorous and sensible exercise carried out by Olivier Vanderhaeghen, an expert in community prevention projects in the municipality of Molenbeek (Brussels). The document contains all the essential things that any professional in the area of penal enforcement needs to know about radicalisation.
LIAISE 2 brings together European cities and regions and develops cooperation throughout Europe within a dedicated network. This approach is in line with the alliance of European cities against violent extremism that was initiated jointly by Efus and the Congress of Local and Regional Authorities of the Council of Europe.
Led by Efus, LIAISE 2 gathers 29 partner organisations in 10 countries, 18 cities and three regions, as well as four national Forums for urban security and three thematic non-governmental organisations.
