This grant program seeks to support and enhance the ongoing project in Bangladesh aimed at promoting the rehabilitation and reintegration of terrorist offenders. It is a collaborative effort between the Dhaka Metropolitan Police’s Counterterrorism and Transnational Crime unit (DMP/CTTC) and the non-government organization Centre for Alternatives (CFA). The program is designed to build on existing initiatives to mitigate the threat of terrorism while facilitating the successful reentry of former terrorists into society through comprehensive rehabilitation processes.
