Hate speech, racism, and disinformation continue to affect young people across digital and offline spaces. At the same time, young people have the capacity to become informed, critical, and active contributors to more inclusive societies.
The HATE-LESS Methodological Guidelines for Participatory Actions provide practical tools for youth workers and educators to address these challenges through media literacy and participatory approaches.
The guidelines:
- Promote youth-led storytelling and counter-narratives
- Strengthen social and civic competences
- Use Participatory Action Research (PAR) to position young people as active co-creators
Structured in progressive chapters, the resource moves from defining participatory methods to supporting the creation of participatory video, grounded in ethical and inclusive practice.
