As part of Safer Internet Day, we are sending a clear signal against the increasing polarization in digital social spaces with our campaign. Our aim is to make the mechanisms behind online hate and disinformation visible and to actively counter them.

We combine three central pillars to achieve this:

Education: We present current facts and studies (including JIM, Shell, Das NETTZ) that show how online hate and disinformation influence our everyday lives and our democracy.

Toolbox: We provide concrete tools - from source checks and deepfake tutorials to fact finders - to ensure that disinformation doesn't stand a chance.

Project power: We present our project "Digital labs - competent for resilience against online hate and disinformation".
