Understanding and confronting extremism: an open-sourced short course
The PERN team is proud to release a joint initiative with the United States Consulate in Perth and with support from Curtin’s Faculty of Humanities designed to build community resilience against extremism. This course consists of five audio module lessons designed for ease-of-access, with the goal of educating and awareness raising to empower community and business leaders, educators, police and youth in understanding and confronting the increasingly complex challenges posed by the rising climate of extremism. In addition to the audio lessons, we have included a teaching pack with summary slides and reading lists to assist students to broaden their knowledge of these topics and educate others.
The project has been generously funded by the US Consulate Perth and Curtin university’s Faculty of Humanities.
