The Human Rights
Defender has published a video about negative consequences of hate speech,
stressing that it has no relation to freedom of speech.
This awareness-raising
video on combating hate speech has been prepared in the framework of the
project “Strengthening the access to justice through non-judiciary redress
mechanisms for victims of discrimination, hate crime and hate speech”, funded
by the European Union and the Council of Europe and implemented by the Council
of Europe in their Partnership for Good Governance II.
The message of the video
is that all of us should live together as a united and democratic society, that
respects everyone’s human dignity and rights.
