Shaping the future: Featuring selected UCY Innovations 2018 - ICT: Hate Speech Analytics

 

MANDOLA is an EU funded project that wants to make a bold step towards improving our understanding of the prevalence and spread of on-line hate-speech. MANDOLA's action is to fill this gap by: i) monitoring the spread and penetration of online hate-speech in Europe and in member states using big data approaches; ii) providing policymakers with actionable information that can be used to promote policies that mitigate the spread of online hate speech; iii) providing ordinary citizens with useful tools that can help them deal with online hate-speech; iv) transferring best practices among member states.
