A/HRC/33/29 incitement to violence, including those perpetrated in the name of religion or belief, as well as to refrain from disseminating messages of incitement to hatred. 37. Comprehensive community outreach should be carried out with the aim of fighting exclusion and marginalization. This implies ensuring that individuals from all communities are provided access to basic services in a non-discriminatory manner, that enjoyment of economic, social and cultural rights is enhanced, and that equal participation of all in political and public life is guaranteed, in accordance with the principle of equality and nondiscrimination, as provided in international human rights law. 38. Civil society should be viewed as a key ally in endeavours to prevent violent extremism. Civil society organizations may be best placed to implement activities relating to preventing and countering violent extremism, including through partnerships with relevant authorities, in particular in contexts in which State involvement has proven counterproductive or would undermine trust between authorities and communities. 54 To maintain and further the community’s trust, both the authorities and civil society organizations involved in such activities should be transparent about the level of contact between organizations providing services to the community and the authorities, including any requirements to report on interactions with the beneficiaries of programmes, as well as about the goals and intentions of their engagement.55 State oversight of civil society organizations should not unduly interfere with their work and should not be of a nature that would risk undermining the confidence between the respective organization and the community it serves. 39. The duty of States to exercise due diligence in ensuring that the human rights of individuals or groups are not subject to abuse by non-State actors includes the duty to provide the requisite conditions and safe space for civil society organizations to be able to carry out their work. These organizations face particularly difficult challenges when engaged in a context or territory where violent extremist groups are present. 56 In such cases, initiatives to preserve or widen civil society space may be further developed. 40. States have the responsibility to set up the necessary regulatory and operational framework to ensure that non-profit organizations are not misused for the financing of terrorism. However, measures taken in this regard, in particular when paired with overly broad definitions of material support to terrorism, have in some countries resulted in restrictions on civil society funding. The Special Rapporteur on the rights to freedom of peaceful assembly and of association has stressed that many of these restrictions do not legitimately advance the fight against money-laundering and terrorism, but rather are motivated by political reasons.57 The adverse effect is particularly great on organizations operating in contexts in which groups considered “terrorist” or “violent extremist” are active, thereby having a negative impact on the delivery of much-needed assistance to populations present in such territories.58 54 55 56 57 58 Peter Romaniuk, “Does CVE work?”.
