Abstract
Articulating the need for powerful, evidence-based and practical interventions and solutions, this chapter discusses the work of the civil society organisation All Together Now regarding far-right extremism. All Together Now’s innovative Community Action for Preventing Extremism (CAPE) project, formerly known as Exit White Power, was established in 2012 to plant a seed of doubt in the minds of young people who are attracted to far-right extremism and White supremacy. Since then it has gone from strength to strength and remains the only project of its kind by a civil society organisation in Australia.
