Project description
Research and training to boost tolerance in Europe
Hate of a person or group is a direct challenge to humanity and a direct threat to a democratic and prosperous society. A dangerous rise in hate speech and intolerance is evident in different social, economic and political dimensions of society. Tackling this issue requires a deeper understanding of hate and its dynamics. The EU-funded NETHATE project aims to research the nature of hate, the dynamics of its spread in online and offline fora, mitigation and reconciliation strategies, and its impact on victims. It will mobilise a multi-disciplinary team of world-leading European researchers to conduct research and training of 15 early stage researchers in this pressing subject area.
Objective
The vision for the NETHATE (Network of Excellence of Training on HATE) ETN is to bring together an interdisciplinary team of world-leading European researchers to tackle a highly ambitious and relevant research project on the nature of hate. It will also examine the dynamics of its spread in both offline and online fora, mitigation and reconciliation strategies, and the impact on victims and bystanders. The research and training programme will deliver doctoral training of 15 ESRs and high-impact research outputs. The complementary research skills and training expertise within this inter-sectoral ETN will ensure that the ESRs trained will become Europes next generation of researchers, teachers and practitioners in understanding the roots and impacts of hate, as well as mitigation strategies, which will support the development of a sustainable democratic culture across the EU. The participation of 10 universities and 1 NGO as the network Beneficiaries and 15 Partner organisations (2 Ministries, 2 companies, 1 University and 10 NGOs) all deeply involved in this area will ensure that the ESRs acquire a broad and deep multi-disciplinary and inter-sectoral training and experience that will make them highly marketable and sought after graduates.
