#defyhatenow project was implemented in four refugee settlements of Adjumani (Pagirinya, Nyumaji, ILO, and Boroli) the initiative worked on providing community-based and data-driven solutions to the problem of hate speech, disinformation, and misinformation.
Our work focused on creating a framework for increasing trust between stakeholders through mobilizing civic action against all forms of hate speech and incitement to violence, #defyhatenow supported the voices and actions of refugees working against online induced conflict within and back home in South Sudan. This was done through the social media literacy campaign of #ThinkB4UClick, school debates, and skits/ dramas.
