The research analyzes hate discourses and good practices of European and national standards, targets, actors, definitions, and anti-discrimination policies. It studies the emergence and embodiments of Euroscepticism in predominantly Eurooptimistic and Eurorealistic countries. The study also examines civic activism in countering hate discourses and practices and promoting European values of respect for difference, liberty, equality, and human dignity. These objectives were a part of the “Active European Citizens Against Hate Speech” project study, and they were implemented in all national reports in two geopolitical regions and six countries, among which the Baltic states and three Balkan states – Bulgaria, Croatia, and Romania. The study also provides recommendations for the EU and its member states on combating hate speech, decreasing Euroscepticism, and improving civic participation. Read more here.
