MigAwards 2021: Counter-Bot project nominated for the finals!

Our project “Counter-Bot: Artificial Intelligence combating racist hate speech online” is nominated for the MigAwards 2021 in the category “Initiative against hate”!

The aim of the project is to create a scientifically sound basis for the implementation of a counter-bot that automatically generates effective counter-speech against racist hate speech online.

The project is realized by the Ludwig Boltzmann Institute of Fundamental and Human Rights, in cooperation with ZARA – Zivilcourage und Anti-Rassismus-Arbeit, the Institute for Linguistics at the University of Vienna, the Institute for Psychology at the University of Klagenfurt and TUNNEL23.
