Symposium on Cyber-Hate: Defining and Combating Antisemitism and Hate Speech Online; Session 2: Combating Online Hate: Law, Technology, and Society

The second session (March 4) is titled Combating Online Hate: Law, Technology, and Society. In this session, we want to look at remedies and responses, discussing the legal, social, and technological frameworks and constraints for responding to online hate. Prof. Yuval Shany (former dean at Hebrew University, and Chair of the United Nations Human Rights Committee), will present the 30-min overview. We have invited Imran Ahmed (CCDH), Mary Anne Franks (University of Miami School of Law, and Dierdre Mulligan (UC Berkeley) to participate in the panel. The moderated panel (1 hour) will delve deeper into the conversation about appropriate responses — what has worked, what has failed, what have been the limitations to effective responses, how do we evaluate successful solutions, and how can we do better at combating hate?
