That’s the question at the heart of our UNITY project. On July 31st, our European team gathered online to align our next steps in supporting young people to stand up against intolerance and hate speech.

From Romania to Portugal, Belgium to Bulgaria, we’re building a cross-European network to:

• Empower youth through education and advocacy
• Support victims of hate speech
• Promote policy change that protects diversity and inclusion

As we continue building this momentum, we’re especially looking forward to our next big milestone: the Transnational Project Meeting in the Netherlands this September. It will be our first in-person chance to share progress, deepen collaboration, and shape what comes next.

Hate speech is rising, but so is the power of youth-led change. UNITY is about turning that power into action.
