Jobs at Violence Prevention Network US

Founded in the early 2000s in Berlin, Violence Prevention Network is one of Europe’s largest civil society organizations working on preventing and countering violent extremism. Over 120 staff members work in 10 regional offices across Germany, which include researchers and trained specialists. Our motto best summarizes our unique, practice-oriented approach to preventing and countering violent extremism: We talk to extremists, not about them. We fight extremism and create a safer society by working directly with ideologically motivated individuals. Our knowledge of what works is informed by thousands of individual cases across the spectrum from (violent) far-right to islamist extremists and their journey to let go of hate and violence and embrace more democratic ways of thinking and acting. We know from experience that change is possible. In July 2022, we incorporated as Violence Prevention Network in the US and files as non-profit.
