SUMMARY:Workshop 2: « What solutions to the expansion of violent extremism:  between collective approaches and national responses »
DESCRIPTION:Contexte\nFor several years, protean violence has taken hold in several parts of the continent, hindering initially promising development prospects. The exacerbation of threats, the resurgence of intercommunal conflicts, the rise of violent extremism and related transnational organized crime continue to destabilize Africa. To stem the spread of violent extremism, several solutions have been implemented, including security and development. But the observation remains almost invariable: this violence, often based on. But the observation remains almost invariable: this violence, often based on the exploitation of the frustrations of local populations and fueled by a recurrent discourse on the real or supposed marginalization of certain communities, persists, develops and even expands geographically.\nThe current modes of action of violent extremist groups and their capacity to adapt and coordinate locally, nationally and internationally, must lead States and all other public security actors to favour a combination of inclusive national approaches and collective approaches based on ad-hoc organizations, the RECs and the African Union. In this perspective, the priority issues to be addressed are, on the one hand, the exit from the “all-security” approach and the active or passive participation of all national actors in the prevention and fight against violent extremism, and on the other hand, the identification of channels for the exchange of operational information between actors, particularly in border areas, and the realization of conditions for cooperation between States and organizations. This involvement of all national actors is an absolute priority. Finally, a more assertive commitment by African countries in their cooperation with external partners and the pooling of their capacities deserve greater attention.\nObjectives\n\nPropose realistic responses to the current challenge of the trend toward the expansion of violent extremism on the continent, through national approaches and collective actions under the aegis of the the AU, RECs, or ad hoc security cooperation structures.\n\n\nIssues to be addressed\n\nWhat solutions to have national security systems capable of countering the expansion of violent extremism?\nHow to strengthen cooperation in the fight against violent extremism between States at the sub-regional and regional levels?\nWhat inclusive national approach to effectively address the multidimensional nature of violent extremism?\nWhat role should international partners play in the fight against the spread of violent extremism?\n\n
