===Objectives===
 
 
 
The fundamental objectives of PVE are to engage and work with Muslim communities to:
 
 
 
* Undermine extremist voices and ideologies so that mainstream voices can speak for the majority of Muslims, who are peaceful and law-abiding citizens
 
 
 
* Disrupt those who promote violence as a methodology for change by strengthening moderate voices and their ability to counter the simplistic arguments and solutions to perceived and real grievances.
 
 
 
* Work with law-enforcement agencies, communities and community leaders to help bring back individuals who may be showing signs of radicalisation and/or extremism through programmes such as the [[Preventing Violent Extremism Pathfinder Fund]] 
 
 
 
* Strengthening the Muslim community as a whole to counter the ideas and beliefs of extremists
 
 
 
* Effectively address grievances that extremists may use to justify their arguments and actions, such as the Iraq war.
