In last few years, online hate speech became of growing concern in European Union due to the raise of online racist and xenophobic speech incidents in many European countries. This raise coincides with advances in Internet Technologies (ITs) and online social networks, which from one side have made more benefits to humanity but at the same time contributed to the generation of a new form of racism and xenophobia that takes place online, which became one of the most common and powerful threats globally. In order to tackle spread of online hate speech that take place on social media platforms, in May 2016, the EU Commission agreed with Facebook, Microsoft, Twitter and YouTube (in 2018 Instagram, Google+ and Snapchat and Dailymotion joined the initiative. Jeuxvideo.com joined in January 2019 ) a “Code of conduct on countering illegal hate speech online”, to help users notifying illegal hate speech in this social platforms, improve the support to civil society as well as the coordination with national authorities. Since then, the drive to take illegal hate speech online is bearing fruit. Indeed, the EU commission in its fourth monitoring survey of industry practices (EU Commission, January 2019) found that the IT companies committed to the commission’s voluntary code of conduct removed from their platforms on average 72% of the illegal hate speech notified to them, most of it within 24 hours. The main aim of “Silence Hate” is to equip youth workers with the skills and knowledge necessary to develop practical tools and counter-arguments to online hate speech which they can use in work with young people.
