This document summarizes the HejtStop campaign in Poland, which aims to counteract hate speech on buildings and online. The campaign engages citizens to report and help remove hateful signs from public spaces. Volunteers then remove signs and the campaign works to ensure hateful messages online are deleted. Over time, the campaign hopes to make people less indifferent to hate and change mindsets through community engagement efforts.

4. HejtStop is a campaign dedicated to removing
hateful signs from the public space in Poland. By
engaging citizens on this level, we want to achieve
a broader objective of making people less
indiferent towards the problem of hate, changing
their mindsets.
5. Key assumptions:
• Use the natural synergy between the project and the social context
(increasing activity of the citizens who are not indifferent towards the
problem of hate).
• More emphasis on volunteers activity in removing signs, rather that
using the legal leverage on the building owners.
