we keep working to fight hate speech

By Tomas LAwrence | Project Leader

Hello everyone, thanks to the work of our entire team and the help of each of the donors, we continue working to fight hate speech in Chile. We are making progress in generating new filters and being able to automate some processes in order to be more efficient in our work. We are working on planning our 2020 to be able to take new groups of volunteers who want to support our cause. In March we will have results to tell you about our first pilot.

On the other hand, we will generate new workshops for senior groups and youth groups that allow an important group of volunteers to denounce the expressions of hatred that are being generated.

Best regards
