Description
The mainstream press is recently including a lot of intolerant, racist, anti-Semitic and homophobic utterances (and these continue all the time) hence positive models, examples are needed. The aim of the project is to strengthen and to support anti-hate-speech behaviors and inclusive attitude. The anti-hate-speech and receptive word processing will be communicated by generating disputes. We expect reaching minimum 5000 people on www.moderal.hu and on FB sites, and hope for further progress in creating a more tolerant dialogue. Our purpose is to turn negative statements into positive i.e. how could/ should these be correctly expressed. Concrete results: during 6 month respond and politically correcting leading news portals comments, contributing with recognized journalists. 500 entries of moderal.hu and its proofread version are symptoms can be researched. The final conference will summarize the results. Target groups include journalists, media students as well as bloggers, post writers. Beneficiaries are the attacked, insulted victims of society and also the creators of proofread texts (knowledge transfer). Hereby decreasing the number of hate crimes.
