“The Adventures of Daly” Graphic Novel Campaign (TUN014) was a project implemented by Search for Common Ground in Tunisia between August 2017 and November 2018.
The goal of this project was to reduce support for violent extremist messaging within Tunisian communities by enhancing their access to and engagement with locally credible voices that counter violent extremist narratives. The project had to main objectives:
- Build the capacity of key Tunisian stakeholders to understand, develop, and discuss relevant alternative narratives to violent extremism that address the underlying needs and grievances of the target groups vulnerable to extremist recruitment.
- Amplify credible alternative narratives to violent extremism in Tunisian communities using locally relevant comic book stories.
The evaluation found that overall the project was highly relevant to the context of youth in the five different regions that were targeted. The relevance of the project was also noticed on the level of the activities that were organized in order to identify the current push and pull factors leading youth to join violent extremist groups. The specific drivers of radicalization identified for the different areas corresponded to the reality of youth living in those areas and were reflected well in the comic book stories.
