Increased social and political polarisation encourages deepening radicalisation and the spread of extremist views. Various attempts are made in Europe to counter this, but there is still much to be done and new challenges are on the horizon. We look at these issues in interviews with people exploring or preventing these phenomena in different countries. Together we try to understand the processes undermining our democracies and to identify concrete solutions to stop the situation from deteriorating. Podcasts are developed in REDE project, implemented in DISCO programme of the CoE and EU.
