Notes

The Dangerous Speech Project was founded in 2010 to study speech (any form of human expression) that inspires violence between groups of people – and to find ways to mitigate this while protecting freedom of expression. We work primarily in four areas:

  1. Tracking and studying dangerous speech in many countries
  2. Researching effective responses to dangerous speech and other forms of harmful expression
  3. Advising social media and other tech companies on their policies, and encouraging them to engage in transparent research
  4. Teaching dangerous speech ideas to a variety of people who use them to study and counter dangerous speech
