HATE SPEECH
FIGHTERS
Training course
11-18 September 2018
The Project ‘’Hate Speech Fighters’’ is a
training course for youth workers, which
will be held in Bansko, Bulgaria from 11
until 18 of September 2018. The project
will involve 30 youth workers from 10
countries in Europe and the Caucasus-
Bulgaria ,Spain,Italy The Netherlands,
Estonia, Romania, Lithuania, Armenia,
Georgia and Azerbaijan. Together with
our partners working on this topic,
we conducted a survey among youth
workers from partner countries on their
knowledge, experience and learning
needs in the field of youth work on anti-
hate, human rights and media literacy in
order to develop this practical training
for youth workers who will implement
and multiply the knowledge and
competences learned in activities after
the end of mobility. The project aims at
developing skills to combat hate speech
through human rights education. The
training activities of ‘’Hate Speech
Fighter’’s are designed to address the
grassroots causes of hate through
education as well as acquiring new
knowledge, skills and competences and
the exchange of good practices between
youth workers. The methodology of
the project is based on non-formal
education and human rights education.
Project activities will help youth workers
in the development of knowledge, skills
and attitudes that will be needed to
determine the right approach to combat
hate speech with young people and
reducing the risk of radicalization.
