Description
What does ‘Prevent’ prevent? The UK government says the program is key to counterterrorism and protecting vulnerable people. Human rights organizations and Muslim groups say it’s surveillance and counterproductive. The government still has not released an independent review of Prevent – but during the review process, it was boycotted by hundreds of organizations. Instead, many participated in a ‘people’s review’ of Prevent. So what does a tale of two reviews tell us about the future of Prevent?
