Stay vigilant friends,

The Global Network on Extremism and Technology (GNET) invites you to attend an online report launch for Primitivo III Cabanes Ragandang’s new GNET Report ‘Young People Challenging Violent Extremism Online: Insights from Asia.’

The event will comprise a 30-minute presentation of the report findings, followed by a 30-minute moderated Q&A.

This report examines online youth-led initiatives involved in challenging violent extremism (CVE). It focuses on the 2013–2023 online presence of 13 youth organisations. Based on data scraped from more than 130 social media posts, the report highlights the dynamics of youth-led CVE efforts online, and discusses strategic planning, content creation and organisational challenges. The study identifies the dual approach of young people in CVE work across both online and offline spaces. This report recommends that CVE youth organisations be given more training in online content creation and social media literacy. It suggests prioritising and supporting offline activities to improve sustainability and proposes collaborative online spaces to boost engagement. The report also recommends that tech companies broaden their existing community systems to amplify and lend credibility to CVE-related content on social media platforms.
