This Project aims to explore effective ways to protect children from the risks of recruitment and exploitation into terrorist groups, as well as the broad impacts of counter-terrorism and violent extremism on children throughout South and Southeast Asia (SA/SEA). The Project will be implemented in South and Southeast Asia, with a focus on Indonesia, building upon the initial successes of the UNODC since 2019, including through the STRIVE Juvenile initiative (2021-2023).
