RE-ACT (2020 – 2022)
CEJI is a cooperation partner for the project RE-ACT, Remember and Act, coordinated by INACH, the International Network Against Cyber-Hate.
Analysis of hate data collected by members of the International Network Against Cyber Hate, INACH, in Europe has shown that there are strong and documented links between current online hate phenomena and hate-slurs, prejudices and practices that have been propagated in the Third Reich.
To transform these worrisome findings into effective warnings, especially since remembrance and knowledge on the Holocaust and its horrors are fading, the project Remember and ACT! (Re-ACT) is putting a special focus on researching how “old” concepts of antisemitism and antigypsyism are being re-enacted by concerted hate campaigns and where they originated from. Starting from there, Re-ACT will develop, collect and provide educational materials and tools for the prevention of racism, xenophobia, homophobia and other forms of intolerance.
These self-generated sets of information plus a curated collection of high-quality educational materials will build the foundation for the establishment of an online prevention-hub at INACH.
Project partners are Romea, Licra, Synyo. Additional partnerships with the European Union of Jewish Students, EUJS, and the European Roma Grassroots Organisations Network, ERGO, to allow for even more input to the needs analysis and exchange on a European level and an audience-targeted dissemination of the projects findings and results.
The project is funded by the European Union’s Rights, Equality and Citizenship Programme (2014 – 2020).
