To address the escalating challenge of toxic speech online, representatives from academia, civil society, government, and industry will come together for a 2-day workshop at the TUM Think Tank, in collaboration with the Bavarian Authority for New Media (BLM), the Bavarian State Ministry of Justice (StMJ), das NETTZ, the Institute for Strategic Dialogue Germany (ISD), the Bavarian Research Institute for Digital Transformation (bidt), and the Content Moderation Lab at the TUM Think Tank.

Strengthening the network

The aim is to strengthen a collaborative network focused on developing strategies to counter the rise of harmful online content. Now in its third edition, the Facilitating Constructive Dialogue Workshop will focus on addressing the issues of hate speech and mis- and disinformation.

The event builds on previous workshops in 2022 and 2023 jointly organized with additional partners of our network, including Meldestelle REspect! and Lumen at the Berkman Klein Center Harvard.

Bringing together stakeholders from academia, civil society, the public sector, and industry, the third edition of the Facilitating Constructive Dialogue Workshop will focus on tackling issues related to hate speech and mis- and disinformation online. Over the course of a two-day event, we will delve into strategies, tactics, and tools that democratic societies can use to address and combat toxic online speech.
