Before They Hate educational model, designed for youth workers, serves two primary goals. First, it equips them with both theoretical understanding and practical skills to identify and counteract hate speech in all forms – both online and offline. Second, it empowers them to confidently guide young people in proactive community engagement and advocacy against hate speech. This model not only enhances awareness but also fosters critical thinking and active participation in societal discussion, enabling youth to combat hate speech in ways that resonate with them.
Here you can find a gallery of activities designed with youth workers in mind to counter hate speech.
The activities cover the topics of Human Rights, online and offline hate speech and participation and democracy. In addition, to enable these activities to be used as a learning pathway, there are also activities to introduce the topic and create the necessary conditions for dealing with hate speech, as well as evaluation activities to make young people aware of the journey made.
You can filter the activity according to its duration, difficulty and theme, to adapt it to the reality of your group.
Two resources have been created with the aim of equipping youth workers in the fight against hate speech. These materials serve as valuable tools to empower youth workers, providing comprehensive insights into the theoretical foundations and a diverse range of engaging activities, to deepen the activities offered on the online platform.
To work on hate speech with young people you can choose the combination that best suits your needs. Whether you want to use only the online platform, only the downloadable materials or a combination of both, any way you choose to work on hate speech with young people is a good choice.
All these resources are at your fingertips for free, so the best idea is to take a look at them and adapt their use according to your group and your needs.
