The radicalisation Prevention e-learning course for prison professionals

The online course was developed through an interactive process and resulted of concerted transnational cooperation between academia, private sector research, correctional sector representatives and practitioners. The course was piloted in Portugal, Belgium, Romania, Norway and Turkey and improved after the feedback of the user practitioners.
