#YouthWagingPeace: Action Guidelines for Prevention of Violent Extremism

The UNESCO MGIEP #YouthWagingPeace guidebook was launched by Director General of UNESCO at its 39th General Conference, 2017. The guidebook was a culmination of reaching out to 2000+ youth, and integrating 130+ submissions from 57 countries.
After analysing these voices and experiences, and supplemented by the literature, the guide put forth a set of tangible action guidelines for education stakeholders.
In this abridged version, stakeholders will find a curated set of critical ideas and lessons gleaned from the full guide, designed to be as accessible as possible. The hope is that teachers, parents, mentors, school administrators, policymakers, and anyone else committed to realizing positive change will find these Action Guidelines an effective resource for guiding immediate and effective actions in their communities.
The Action Guidelines for Prevention of Violent Extremism is designed to identify engagement opportunities for all stakeholders. Some require time, preparation, and resources. Others are small steps that will help create safer societies and stronger communities. No action is too small to contribute to building a more resilient and just world.
