Due Regard - A documentary and discussion on Prevent
About this event
In 2015, the UK introduced the Prevent duty under the Counter-Terrorism and Security Act 2015, which obliges social workers, educators, health professionals and police to show "due regard" for people who may exhibit signs of "radicalisation". This 40-minute documentary, made by researchers at the University of Warwick, explores how the Prevent programme has affected the lives of people reported under it.
This screening of "Due Regard" is on behalf of the Nottingham chapter of Amnesty International.
Amnesty UK argues that the Prevent programme results in discrimination (especially against Muslims and neurodiverse people), violates freedom of expression and thought, lacks transparency and is disproportionate. To have your say on the Prevent programme, take part in the plenary discussion afterwards.
