action.
● An app for smart
phones.
● As an appealing way
to approach young
people who...
● prefer mobile devices
rather than desktop
computers or even
books.
HOW?

7. Let’s think...
Do we have the right to
express ourselves even if
our words can harm
people or cause crimes?
Does the person or the
media play a role on the
impact that words could
have?
Are there borders
between hate and free
speech?
Can all offensive
expressions incite hatred
or violence?
Is there a light
and heavy edition
of hate speech?

8. HOMEPAGE
● There will be 6 components/
sections displayed on the
first screen, that can be
chosen by the user.

9. 1. HATE OR FREE SPEECH?

free speech.

rights.

11. 3.FIND THE VICTIM

motivate hate speech.
● User reads an expression
that can be considered as
bias and chooses, from a list,
the group of people that are

stingy misers. They even
killed Jesus!”

12. 4. TAKE ACTION-TIPS
