أستراليا: الجمعيات الإسلامية تبذل جهودها للتواصل مع الشباب

خبر من مصادر إنجليزية.

تقوم الجمعيات الإسلامية بمدينة "نيو ساوث ويلز" الأسترالية ببذل جهود واسعة للتواصل مع شباب المسلمين، وتوعيتهم ببيان صحيح الإسلام، وذلك بعد فشل الإستراتيجيات الحكومية التي كانت تقوم على الحل الأمني والمصالح السياسية، وفقًا لتصريحات بعض رموز العمل الإسلامي.

وأكدت بعض القيادات الإسلامية أن الدولة ينبغي أن تهتم بالتواصل المباشر مع الشباب، وتصميم البرامج المتنوعة التثقيفية والاجتماعية والداعمة على مستوى الولايات، بدلاً من المبادرات الفيدرالية والحلول الأمنية؛ المصدر: شبكة الألوكة.

Muslim groups call for direct engagement with young people to prevent radicalisation

Muslim and community groups in New South Wales have said the State Government has been "tokenistic" in its strategy to counter radicalisation among young Muslims and have called for more direct engagement.

Silma Ihram from the Australian Muslim Women's Association said there was too much emphasis on policing in NSW and not enough on early intervention to prevent radicalisation.

"The State Government would do better to have closer contact with those at the coalface and to really have a more coordinated approach," Ms Ihram said.

She said more programs were needed on a state level rather than relying on federal funding for initiatives.

"Whether it's through education, through social support, lots of different programs that can run that need the funding to prevent these kind of things happening in the first place, policing whilst important, is only part of the solution," Ms Ihram said.

Australian Arabic Council founder Joe Wakim said the current NSW strategy was not working.

"A fresh approach would be that if we're going to engage with the Muslim community, we have to say it and mean it, with very little direct consultations to date," Mr Wakim said.
