On October 10-11 Institute of human rights and prevention of extremism and xenophobia will visit INACH annual conference dedicated to actual problems of hate speech in Internet.
The conference "Virtual Citizenship and Social Responsibility" is hosted by International League against Rasicm and Antisemitism (LICRA), French member of INACH.
Representatives of internet corporations such as Google and Facebook, media representatives, and human rights experts will take part in the event.

"Today, INACH proposes an innovative approach, based on the notion of “virtual citizenship” and social responsibility among all Internet actors - from the industry to everyday users – drawing on the models of “eco-citizenship” and “ecological responsibility.”
