The Office of the Chief Minister (OCM) through its Development Academy of the Bangsamoro (DAB) has spearheaded a forum against violent extremism.
Over a hundred youths from different schools and organizations in Bangsamoro region attended the Forum on Preventing and Countering Violent Extremism held Monday, November 18, in Cotabato City.
Sheikh Abdulkahar Musa, one of the resource persons, noted that violent extremism has no language, no color and no religion.
He urged the participants to understand the roots of extremism to prevent it.
“Ang violent extremism ay isang malalang virus na kung saan kapag dinapuan ka ay wala ka ng papakinggan maliban sa iyong sarili lamang,” Musa said.
The forum’s briefer states that the term “violent extremism” refers to the beliefs and actions of people who support or use ideologically-motivated violence to further radical ideological, religious, or political aims. Violent extremist views can manifest in connection with a range of issues, including politics, religion and gender relations.
