Digital Resource Guide: Media Education Against Hate Speech Year of publication: 2022 Corporate author: Esplai Foundation We could define hate speech as the set of communicative actions aimed at defending, promoting or instigating hatred, humiliation or contempt of a person or group of people. Although hate speech is not something exclusive to the Internet, but is part of the reality beyond the networks, it is true that the potential of the networks facilitates the movement of communication flows, because it facilitates both the production and the creation of messages. Hate speech has also benefited from this and, in addition, has found in the networks other characteristics such as anonymity, brevity, free messaging services or legitimacy granted by the number of followers. With this guide we want to provide digital tools for the creation of this counter-discourse that allows for the creation of messages that offer a positive alternative to extremist propaganda.

Participatory Diagnosis of Youth Perceptions and Attitudes Towards Hate Speech and Denialism of Gender Violence and Rights of Migrants From the Approaches of Global Citizenship Education Year of publication: 2024 Author: Bárbara Biglia | Aloe Cubero Corporate author: InteRed | Agencia Española de Cooperación Internacional para el Desarrollo (AECID) This diagnosis seeks to respond to the need to explore the perceptions and attitudes of youth regarding hate speech, specifically those that deny gender violence and the rights of migrants. We wanted to carry out this process recognizing the agency of young people and therefore we seek to generate collective and mobilizing reflections that increase their commitment as agents of change in our society. To this end, we place ourselves within the framework of Feminist Activist Research (IAF) using photovoice as a research strategy.
Podcast: Right to Education Against Hate Speech (SAME 2024) Year of publication: 2024 Corporate author: Global Campaign for Education (GCE) The Global Action Week for Education (GAE) 2024 has been the perfect setting for children and adolescents to contribute their voice and perspective to the issue of hate speech. Through awareness-raising and reflection workshops, children and adolescents have shared complex personal situations and cases of hate that they have witnessed, reproduced or experienced first-hand. Guided by their reflections, the participants designed a two-chapter podcast, where they addressed the issues that concern them most. This process not only allowed them to deepen their understanding of the normalization of hate speech and structural violence, but also to prepare for the production of the podcast, where they were able to express their thoughts and proposals in a creative and accessible way for a wider audience.
Social Education in the Face of Hate Speech: Intercultural Competences in University Education (Journal of Supranational Policies of Education; Vol. 1, No. 19) Year of publication: 2024 Author: Teresa Rebolledo Gámez | Rocío Rodríguez-Casado Corporate author: Autonomous University of Madrid The spread of hate speech against immigrants, people of foreign origin or ethnic minorities is one of the most serious threats to peaceful coexistence in today's society. This is especially true in media contexts and social networks, where the boundaries between the right to freedom of expression and hate speech or hate crimes are often blurred. Therefore, we need educational professionals with intercultural competences whohave strategies to combat these discourses. In this article, we present an experience of a pedagogical innovation that works on these competences in the Degree in Social Education, which received very positive evaluations in terms of improving conceptual and attitudinal learning, as well as the acquisition of socio-educational strategies to act against the emergence of hate speech. On the basis of this experience, we reflect on different aspects that should be present in intercultural university training in the field of hate speech and hate crimes, concluding that there is still an urgent need for universities to promote the training of socio-educational professionals based on a human rights, equality, justice, culture of peace and non-violence approach.
Addressing Hate Speech Through Education: A Guide for Policy-Makers Year of publication: 2023 Corporate author: UNESCO | UN. Office on Genocide Prevention and the Responsibility to Protect Hate speech is spreading faster and further than ever before as a result of social media user growth and the rise of populism. Both online and offline, hate speech targets people and groups based on who they are. It has the potential to ignite and fuel violence, spawn violent extremist ideologies, including atrocity crimes and genocide. It discriminates and infringes on individual and collective human rights, and undermines social cohesion. Education can play a central role in countering hateful narratives and the emergence of group-targeted violence. Educational responses to hate speech and all forms of hateful communication include:• Training teachers and learners on the values and practices related to being respectful global and digital citizens;• Adopting pedagogical and whole-school approaches to strengthening social and emotional learning;• Revising and reviewing curricula and educational materials to make them culturally responsive and to include content that identifies hate speech and promotes the right to freedom of expression;This policy guide developed by UNESCO and the United Nations’ Office on Genocide Prevention and the Responsibility to Protect explores these educational responses and provides guidance and recommendations to policy-makers on how to strengthen education systems to counter hate speech.
