Description
The Working Group on Addressing Youth Radicalization and Mobilization (AYRM) focused on identifying current trends in youth radicalization and mobilization, and on identifying lessons learned from prevention and positive intervention strategies to address these dynamics. This group aimed to highlight best practices while connecting industry, practitioners, and experts to enhance cross-sector efforts. Through a series of structured multi-stakeholder dialogues, the group mapped evolutions in both threats and responses, considering in particular how terrorists and violent extremists had targeted younger audiences online.
The group examined lessons learned from practice and programs, including positive interventions, counter-speech or “counter-narrative” work, and wider PCVE engagements, building on previous GIFCT Working Groups. Key findings and insights gleaned from the group, as well as the identification of relevant tools and resources, helped equip practitioners in online safety efforts to build resilience in young online users and further positive intervention efforts.
Cecilia Polizzi, Founding CEO of the Next Wave Center, was appointed as an expert to AYRM in 2025 and authored a Global Network on Extremism and Technology Insight as part of Next Wave and the International Center for Children and Global Security’s contribution to AYRM.
