With the slogan ‘Share Respect – Stop Online Hate Speech!', the campaign will focus on the notions of hate speech and respect. What is hate speech, how can I recognise it and how is it different from a legitimate opinion? What is respect and how can I learn to communicate in a respectful manner? Another focus is the fight against hate speech through reaction and prevention: how and where can I report online hate speech? What techniques can I use to counter hate speech in social networks? These questions will be addressed on a monthly basis with more detailed information about techniques which can be used to challenge hate speech or about specific forms of discrimination such as sexism or racism.
