Publication d'un rapport du German Council on Foreign Relations (DGAP) sur "Psychological Factors in Tertiary Prevention", dont la matière porte sur la prévention de la radicalisation et celle du salafo-djihadisme.Synthèse par les auteursThis Issue Paper lays out the most important aspects of these topics as addressed during the second InFoEx workshop in May 2019. Topics range from risk assessment tools to professional (medical) confidentiality. The paper thus aims to contribute to a better and more nuanced understanding by including highlights from expert discussions and additional perspectives of relevant researchers, as well as practical recommendations.From these findings, the following, more general recommendations result for those involved in the design, planning, funding, and implementing of tertiary prevention projects and programs.Key RecommendationsEnsuring integration of mental health expertise in tertiary prevention: There is no consensus on how exactly mental health impact an individual’s decision to disengage from an extremist group. Yet there is a cor-relation and experts largely agree that tertiary prevention should include mental health expertise and provide psychological support when needed.Developing a common understanding around mental health: To ensure a common understanding of the topic, involved actors should generate definitions, standards, and assessment tools, as well as establish ongoing monitoring and evaluation processes.Enhancing and improving multi-agency training: There is an urgent need for joint trainings of different professions, such as social workers or security agencies. Project budgets should aim to include training units, for example regarding risk assessment, information-sharing, and medical confidentiality.  Existing training pro-grams should be regularly updated to include current developments in research and practice on radicalization and extremism, as well as relevant challenges, such as legal matters regarding prevention work.Providing frameworks for effective cooperation and support counseling within and across professions: Funding authorities should provide funding for projects that develop opportunities for institutionalized ex-change between professional peers as well as across professional borders. In this way, the access to professionals with relevant knowledge on radicalization and extremism can be improved, for example through (internal) intervision and peer-to-peer counseling.Expanding (existing) public structures: Existing support structures should be expanded to alleviate pressure on mental health specialists who are supporting tertiary prevention and ensure access to psychiatric care.Translating research findings into practice and informing research from practical experience: Researchers should make sure to involve mental health professionals in the design of their research, as well as ensure that research results are discussed with practitioners and translated into practical recommendations. At the same time, workshops including case intervision, as well as talks on and presentations of practical experience, can be used to influence research questions and design
