This document brings together the best practices in the field of Prevention of Violent Extremism (PVE) across the Euro-Mediterranean region. It aims to provide a reference point for conceptualizing, designing and implementing PVE initiatives. After exposiing a theoretical framework that operationalises key concepts such as violent extremism, radicalisation or PVE, this document focuses on the analysis of five ‘areas of intervention’, discussing best practices in research, advocacy, training, intercommunity dialogue and alternative narratives. Furthermore, it critically examines two models (Tunisia and Germany) as well as two anti-models (Morocco and France) in terms of PVE. Finally, it provides a set of policy recommendations in orders to improve or promote best practices in the field of PVE.
