🗓️ June 18th – International Day for Countering Hate Speech
Today we join voices across Europe to say:
🛑 Hate speech is not just words - it is harm.
Today, and every day, MVidee reaffirms its commitment to stand firmly against hate speech. We advocate for a society rooted in respect, human dignity, and the richness of diversity.
In alignment with this year’s International Day for Countering Hate Speech theme - “Enhancing Legal and Non-Legal Measures Against Hate Speech Through a Multi-Stakeholder Approach” - MVIdee continues its broader commitment to combating hate through various initiatives. Among them is UNITY - United Against Hate Speech & Hate Crime, a project launched this year in partnership with 6 partner countries: Romania, Bulgaria, Greece, Portugal, Netherlands and Belgium. UNITY represents a strategic and long-term effort to address hate speech and hate crime by:
✅ Raising public awareness
✅ Educating and engaging diverse communities
✅ Providing support to victims of hate speech and hate crime
✅ Promoting tolerance, inclusion, and solidarity
Last week, our team also joined the European Youth Event (EYE2025) in Strasbourg, where we held workshops on inclusion and diversity, empowering young people to express their stories and stand against hate through creative tools.
🛑 Hate speech is not an opinion- it is a form of violence, discrimination, and a direct threat to social cohesion.
👥 Join us in building a safer, more respectful society.
Speak up. Stand firm. Take action - online and offline - against hate in all its forms.
