Introductory slide with the SCENOR – The Science Crew logo and the title “FACT VS FICTION”. Subheading states: “Debunking myths about extremism, terrorism and more.” Neutral blue-grey background with minimal graphic elements.
Slide titled “FICTION”. Text states: “Deradicalisation programmes do not work and fail to prevent reoffending.” Clean layout with a white text box on a blue-grey background and a visual cue to swipe for the fact.
Slide titled “FACT”. Text explains that deradicalisation does not require full ideological change to be effective. It highlights risk reduction through disengagement from violence, weakening harmful networks, and improved social functioning. Source cited: RAN Rehabilitation Manual.
Slide titled “WHY IT MATTERS”. Text explains that judging success only by belief change creates blind spots in policy and practice. It stresses assessing outcomes based on reduced risk, sustained disengagement, and social reintegration rather than ideological transformation alone.
