Prevention of extremism and radicalisation: The internet and social media have proven to be powerful tools for extremists to radicalise individuals. We, therefore have a concern that radicalisers may especially influence young vulnerable people with their propaganda materials. Without support, a young person, who might have questions about their own identity and place in society, might become a target for grooming.
