Prevention programmes are more likely to succeed when developed, coordinated and implemented in collaboration with community members. One way to mobilize a community and involve it in protecting its children against recruitment by terrorist and violent extremist groups is to articulate and communicate a shared vision and concrete objectives through a well-crafted communication strategy, informed and delivered by trusted actors. In all efforts towards engagement, a range of trusted community members, including public authorities, civil society, community leaders, schools and education officials, religious leaders, and others must unite in collaborative processes to provide the necessary support for the child and his/her family, as appropriate, including developing a culture of lawfulness.
