COOPERHATE

In response to the growing prevalence of hate crime and hate speech in Portugal, COOPERHATE builds on past initiatives to deliver a stronger and more coordinated approach.

The project seeks to provide an unprecedented framing of hate dynamics at the national level, improve the understanding of the phenomena of hate speech and hate crime by civil society and (non) governmental actors, increase the detection, reporting and evaluation of both phenomena, enhance the capacity of public authorities and civil society to prevent and act on hate-related (and motivated) incidents, and foster public awareness (and victim empowerment) through a multivariate framework.

To achieve this goal, the promote cross-sectoral collaboration, develop detection and assessment tools, project will combine legal, technological, training, and awareness initiatives to provide tailored assistance frameworks, and capacitate professionals.
