UN calls for state preventing radicalization in the youth
17/12/15
In the early December, with the consensus of 15 members, the
Security Council of the United Nations adopted a resolution calling on nations
of the world to adopt measures to prevent radicalization situation in the youth
and remove the causes leading to this situation.
In the recently adopted resolution, the Security Council
expressed concern at the fact that, among the civilian population, young people
aged from 18 to 29 make up a large proportion of those who suffer the
consequences of armed conflict, particularly refugees and migrants, they do not
have access to education and economic prospects, and this is especially
detrimental to the process of building sustainable peace and reconciliation.
The members of the Security Council of the United Nations
also stressed that young people engage in acts of violence and violent
extremism as a threat to stability and development with negative impact which
impedes efforts to consolidate peace and even nurture the conflicts. The
Security Council stressed the need to remove the causes and factors that
contribute to the radicalization of the youth which leads to violence and violent
extremism, and in some cases it also turns into members of terrorist acts.
The Council also expressed concern that terrorists and their
supporters are increasingly using information technology and communications
including the Internet to recruit young people and encourage them to take the
terrorist acts and financing, planning and preparing for their activities.
According to the Security Council, the member states of the
UN should act in the spirit of cooperation to prevent terrorists who take
advantage of technology, media and other resources to serve the purpose to
incite terrorist acts and act with respect for human rights, fundamental
freedoms and all other obligations under international law.
The Security Council also urged member states to
"consider ways to strengthen the representation of the youth at all
levels" in the process of decision-making bodies and local system, national,
regional and international process of settling the conflicts.
15 members of the Security Council called on all
stakeholders, especially including the parties negotiating and implementing
peace agreements, focusing on young people appropriately and evaluating that
the indifference to the youth is absolutely unfavorable for building a lasting
peace in all societies.
In addition, all parties involved in an armed conflict must
respect fully their obligations under international law regarding the
protection of civilians, including young people, especially those arising from
the 1949 Geneva Conventions and Additional Protocol in 1977.
The Security Council also called on member states to create a
favorable environment in which young people from all backgrounds, all have
their place and necessary support to conduct violence prevention activities and
promote social cohesion.
The Security Council stressed the importance of developing
policies for youth, while strengthening the peace-building activities,
especially to facilitate the process of economic and social development,
supporting the development projects of the local economy and giving young
people job prospects for job and technical training, promoting education, entrepreneurship
and involvement of the youth in political life.
In addition, the Member States should also take action to
build a quality education for peace, giving young people the means to engage
constructively in the life of society and the comprehensive political
activities.
The Security Council of the United Nations called on all concerned
parties to consider the establishment of mechanisms to promote a culture of
peace, tolerance, intercultural and inter-religious dialogues, including
position of the youth and prevent them from being involved in acts of violence,
terrorism, xenophobia and discrimination in all its forms

recently, many complex cases that had leaded to chaos in countries over the world have involved the youth.
we should pay more attention to youth and timely help and encourage them when they are in trouble
that's right, if not it's easy for them to become extrimists that can carry out negative actions, even become terrorists
Islam State (IS) is the most dangerous threat to our world. They alwways seek to attract the youth to join their organization.
the youth are easily seduced by the IS beacause they often use social netwwork most
the above-resolution of the Security Council of the United Nations demonstrate concerns of threats from the IS
I totally agree that countries should consider ways to strengthen the representation of the youth at all levels in the process of decision-making bodies and local system, national, regional and international process of settling the conflicts.
