To strengthen EU young citizens’ collective engagement with gender-based hate speech as a systemic, EU-wide phenomenon.
Elephant Talk is a youth active citizenship project created by Maghweb in collaboration with Impact Hub Labs, Polylogos and Young Educators funded by the EACEA in the CERV programme, Citizen’s Engagement and Participation strand. The project aims to engage young citizens across Europe in a collective, international collaborative data gathering and visualisation action against online gender-based hate speech with youth workers from their different communities. Through a series of international gender-sensitive data gathering and visualisation training events for youth workers, locally driven international data gathering and visualisation actions and active dialogue between young people and members of the EU parliament, the project will foster young people’s critical understanding and collective engagement with online gender-based hate speech as a systemic, EU-wide phenomenon.
