1 TIC E In Partnership with Think Peace with the Support of Pat-Mali (USAID/OTI-AECOM Project) Regional CVE Workshop for Civil Society Leaders Activity Report November 2015 Hotêl ONOMO, Bamako - Mali.
2 CVE and the role of civil society : Security measures against violent extremism does not fight the problem at its core. A participatory approach, where government and nongovernment actors play a role is very important to counter the problem at its core. In addition, unlike counterterrorism, countering violent extremism (CVE) is a new paradigm that aims at addressing structural and social conditions enabling recruitment and radicalization to violent extremism. In CVE, we focus on prevention with the goal of building more conflict resilient communities. CVE prioritizes the role of civil society to implement education, arts, and interfaith activities in communities to counter the propaganda of extremists.
3 Need Statement: Regional CVE Workshop for Civil Society Leaders 5-11 November, Bamako Mali In January 16, 2012, an armed conflict broke out in Northern Mali and Al Qaeda network in the Sahel capitalized on the opportunity to seize a weakened region. The French intervened military to aid the expulsion of the radical rebels in January, After the French intervened, A U.N. peacekeeping mission MINUSMA was launched to help aid the political process towards peace, which continues today. The military intervention didn t achieve a sustainable peace because military force does not combat the problem at its core. The USAID/OTI and AECOM with their partners worked to strengthen civil society movement to advocate for peace through: the Plate forme for Peace Ensemble Nous Sommes Un Peuple which is a network of civil society leaders advocating for peace in Mali, and Think Peace which is a Malian local Think Tank. In September 2015, a Global Youth Summit on Countering Violent Extremism was organized in New York City to define a Youth Action Agenda to redefine the role of youth as CVE partners. Think Peace in partnership with TICVE~Building Peace used the Summit's Youth Action Agenda as a basis to develop a Mali-specific Youth CVE Agenda. With support from the MTI program, Think Peace and TICVE brought together a group of 53 young civil society leaders from across Mali for a one-week workshop in Bamako to build their capacities regarding CVE and draft a Youth Agenda. This Agenda will be used as a tool to raise the issue of youth and community engagement to counter violent extremism with the Malian government and the broader spectrum of Malian civil society. Objectives: -Introduce civil society in Mali leaders to the new CVE Approach. -Bring 53 civil society leaders from all the regions in Mali to work together on a CVE youth Action Agenda for Mali. -Produce a Policy brief (one to two pages) with recommendation on how to counter violent extremsim in Mali to publish in news papers and publish online. -Produce a youth action agend for Mali. Methodology: The Workshop was a combination of presentations followed by (questions and answers), discussions and group work. We had three workshops per day two were trainers presentations and one was a group work where the participants were introduced to specific guidlines which helped them write their action agenda and their policy brief. Professors presentations aimed to understand violent extremsim from an interdisceplanary approach. Looking at economic, political, social, and religious factors associted with violent extremism.
4 The working groups aimed to do an internal analysis of Mali, understaning the push/and pull factors to violent extremism in Mali and in each locality present in the room. Understanding the local approchaes used to counter violent extremism in Mali. Understanding the best practices and lessons learned after the Mali crisis. The second phase of the working groups aimed to do a Vioenlt Extremism SWOT analysis for Mali, looking at the weakness, strenthgs, challenges and oportunities to counter violent extremism. The thirst phase of the working group aimed to write a shared vision, mission and a youth action plan and a policy brief to counter violent extremism in Mali. Findings and Statistics: We distributed at the end an evaluation form, the majority of the participants were satisfied with the training and 94 % answered that they have a better understanding of CVE after the training. In addition 94% answered that they prefere a participatory approach to CVE than only a security approach. However we have to take into consideration that Among 53 participants only 34 answered our evaluation.
