Alert
Vacancy
Background
The Public Participation Section (PPS) of Democratization Department of the OSCE Mission in Kosovo is implementing an extra-budgetary project “Roll-out of ‘Leaders against Intolerance and Violent Extremism’ (LIVE) Training Course for Youth” #2101017. LIVE is a new flagship capacity-building initiative for civil society announced by the OSCE Secretary General in 2015 in line with Ministerial Council Declaration No. 4/15 in Preventing and Countering Violent Extremism and Radicalization that Lead to Terrorism.
LIVE aims to raise awareness, encourage, and train leaders of civil society so that they can, on a voluntary basis, effectively undertake and advocate efforts for countering/preventing violent extremism and radicalism that lead to terrorism (C/PVERLT), especially at the local level. Using a multi-dimensional and cross-sectoral approach, the LIVE initiative seeks to promote context-specific efforts against VERLT developed and led by civil society across the OSCE area for grassroots awareness-raising to build resilience; counter-messaging to condemn and delegitimize terrorism; and promote alternative narratives and opportunities for positive change. The LIVE aims to generate and promote efforts that are organic to civil society, and to ensure a level of quality in their planning.
Since countering VERLT requires a multi-dimensional approach and multi-stakeholder collaboration, this LIVE training program will also involve representatives of key ministries responsible for dealing with VERLT in Kosovo.
