Back Manual on combating hate speech - Montenegro

Manual on combating hate speech - Montenegro

Description: This manual was the first step in the field of combating hate speech online in Montenegro. It provides a summary of the conclusions and recommendations for various activities that can help others to plan action to combat hate speech online. Active participants and experts at the workshop also identified specific examples of hate speech online (on social networks, portals, forums, etc.) and made proposals to combat them in ways that are creative and which, in addition to online actions and initiatives, also include offline activities. At the same time, in this manual you can find short descriptions about international conventions, as well as a description of the situation in the region and in Montenegro when it comes to legislation in this field. This manual is an outcome of a wider project, Combating Hate Speech on the Internet, which was implemented in Montenegro from the end of 2012, with financial support from the Council of Europe (European Youth Foundation). During this project, Forum MNE organised a three-day workshop that gathered 20 participants from 6 Montenegrin municipalities.
