This handbook builds on UNESCO and United Nations Office of the Special Rapporteur on Preventing Genocide and the Responsibility to Protect publication Addressing hate speech through education: policy guide (2023). It provides educators with a conceptual framework to understand the definitions, drivers and consequences of hate speech. Additionally, it outlines concrete pedagogical practices, activities, and resources to co-create inclusive learning spaces that promote diversity, cultivate critical thinking, and facilitate the overall modelling of responsible citizenship that prevents hate speech and foster a culture of peace.
