According to your opinion, what drives online hate speech?
In our opinion people attack others because we have discrepancy such as race, religion, ethnic origin, sexual orientation, disability, or gender. For some of us, it’s hard to accept this distinctness and that drives people to not respect each other and misdemeanor. Also we have several way stay anonymous on internet. Therefore people feel theirself unidentified and that makes people feel confident about their speech.
What is the role of youth organizations/NGOs in the prevention of "online violence"?
We think NGO’s and youth organizations can be use as a training pattern because NGO’s and youth organizations are widely accepted places for education after schools. we can teach people how to respect others opinions and pass our opinion on correct way. SO how can we do this? As we all know young people are most active in network and we should start in there. We can run awareness campaigns on social medias via Youtube, Instagram, Facebook etc. While online educations continuing we can arrange chance to introduce victims of online Violence and make interviews about how to this topic turn their's life into a living hell.
What can we do to ensure digital security of young people? What are your tips for staying safe online?
