SORU:
What roles can be played by women and youth in the fight against radicalization, violent extremism, and terrorism in your opinion?
CEVAP:
Women cannot be regarded only as a passive agency as victims of radicalization and violent extremism, and terrorism, but indeed as an actor that can be part of all stages. In that light, various roles of and the unique status of women within the context of these phenomena is gradually accepted by the international community which puts emphasis on formally addressing this necessary broadening of the scope regarding women’s role within this context.
We come across a quite high number of the youth within the context of radicalization, violent extremism, and terrorism. For instance, regarding violent extremism and terrorism, as high as 20 percent of the suicide attackers are between 15 and 18 ages. It is also estimated that around 1,500 children even
under these ages joined ISIS/ISIL/DAESH to fight (Alfred, 2016).
