The education directorate and the police want to combat youth radicalization. Valuable networking work was carried out at the round table on the topic of “Youth and the risk of extremism”.
“Extremism has no place in this country – neither left, right, nor religiously motivated,” states State Councilor Christiane Teschl-Hofmeister. This problem in particular can only be solved as a task for society as a whole. Networking in the fight against dangers The round table on the topic of “Youth and the threat from extremism” was held together with the State Police Directorate, the State Office for the Protection of the Constitution and Combating Terrorism, the Youth Information Office, the Education Directorate and representatives from the Research area on the best possible networking in the fight against potential dangers. In addition to stopping illegal immigration from “extremist countries”, the focus was on possible radicalization tendencies in local mosques, schools and sports clubs. The Office for Violence Prevention therefore offers targeted training for educators: This fall, for example, a focus was set on the University of Education. “It is high time to deal intensively with the problem of radicalization,” says Asylum Regional Councilor Christoph Luisser, welcoming everyone’s collective efforts those involved.
