How can we use evidence to improve deradicalisation and violence prevention outcomes?

Based on work developed during the implementation of the cross-European INDEED project, this is an essential reference book for practitioners, researchers and policy makers. It sets out the three pillars of best evidence-based practice - scientific evidence, professional judgement and consideration of clients' preferences, values and beliefs. Demonstrating both successful and unsuccessful approaches with case studies from the field, the book offers practical strategies for prevention teams designing and evaluating their programmes.

Reviews
"This timely volume emphasises the importance of evidence-based practice for effective policy and practice. The authors also point out obstacles and methodological challenges in evaluating the impact of prevention measures in a field where causes, processes and contexts are highly complex." Tore Bjorgo, University of Oslo Center for Research on Extremism (C-REX)
"Topical, lucid and enlightening with absorbing cases of crises, insights into human behaviour and applicability of detailed methodologies to emergencies, this is an important guide for those involved in countering violent extremism and radicalisation." Anastasia Filippidou, Cranfield University
