“Action Day – Countering Sexist Hate Speech” – 8 March
Years that this action day was marked: 2016, 2017.
Description: On this Action Day, the campaign took action and raised awareness about the damaging impact of online sexist hate speech on our democratic society and the equal participation of women in all aspects of life, including in the media, political and social space. This resource includes concept notes of the action days, evaluation reports, infographics, blog posts written by Council of Europe’s officials, local initiatives across Europe, and so on.
The Action Days mobilise the national campaigns and European partners of the No Hate Speech Movement in joint activities on specific forms or targets of hate speech. Each Action Day has a programme of activities prepared in co-operation with the national campaign co-ordinators, online activists and campaign partners.
