The Campbell Countering violent extremism (CVE) evidence synthesis programme is a global research initiative to use rigorous and relevant evidence to inform policy and practice. The programme will publish a series of high-quality Campbell systematic reviews and evidence maps in priority areas agreed in consultation with the programme funders. The systematic approach adopted in Campbell maps and reviews reduces the sources of bias in much policy advice.
The program originates from interest across a five-country partnership of Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the UK and the US in adopting an evidence-based approach to countering violent extremism. The partnership takes the form of a network of departments and agencies responsible for various dimensions of public safety and national security policy and research.
The Five Research and Development (5RD) Countering Violent Extremism (CVE) network was established in 2015 to provide a forum to enable broad-ranging cooperative Research Development Test & Evaluation (RDT&E) among public safety and security entities with a goal of connecting efforts from within governments, academia, and the private sector to enable forward-thinking of CVE, terrorism and threat prevention, while leveraging the global expertise in a single forum.
