| Summary |
"Violent extremism often spreads through localized conflict, with extremist groups manipulating local grievances to gain position and traction. Both the international community and national governments have difficulty working in such small-scale and diverse conflict contexts. Understanding how communities undermine and regulate violent extremist groups helps assess local risk and vulnerability for improved, targeted support. This experimental, mixed-method study identifies key community resilience factors to violent extremism in urban neighborhoods in Kenya, including high levels of Christian-Muslim association and high-functioning community-led and -focused security initiatives. These community resilience factors could become part of an evidence-based foundation for successful prevention programming in and beyond Kenya"--Publisher description. |
