On Wednesday, 28 October 2026, the General Delegation for Prison Administration and Reintegration (DGAPR) and the Moussalaha Centre launched the second edition of a training programme for DGAPR staff at the National Training Institute for Prison Administration and Reintegration Officers in Tiflet, under the theme: “Countering Violent Extremism: Prevention Strategies, Community Resilience, and Securing the Prison Environment.”
The programme aims to strengthen prison staff’s skills in detecting and identifying various manifestations of violent extremism, as well as recognizing associated warning signs and indicators. Drawing on international best practices in this field, it also seeks to enhance the resilience of prison personnel against extremist ideologies by equipping them with the necessary tools and techniques to prevent radicalization and strengthen their capacities in countering violent extremism and upholding human rights.
Delivered by experts and academics specializing in the field, the programme will benefit approximately 200 male and female prison officers from 12 correctional facilities, through six training sessions, each bringing together 33 participants over a three-day period.
The implementation of this programme is aligned with the Moussalaha Centre’s strategic axes, particularly its efforts to counter violent extremism within correctional facilities.
