Web article on problems encountered due to intolerance based on religion

A new storytelling article tackling hate speech and discrimination against religious minorities in the Republic of Moldova is based on a real life story of a young woman who faced public criticism because of her religion. Her challenging path and the story of successful engagement in community building is presented in the third article of a series of six web articles developed by the journalistic platform "Oameni și Kilometri", in co-operation with the Ombudsoffice, Equality Council and the Promo-LEX Association from the Republic of Moldova.

The web article presents the problems of hate speechincitement to discrimination or other forms of manifestation of intolerance, which are based on grounds of religion or religious beliefs. Along with the story, there are useful references in the article for potential victims or witnesses of hate speech, as well as country-specific data on hate speech and discrimination against representatives of other religious denominations.

This article was prepared in the framework of the project "Strengthening access to justice for victims of discrimination, hate crime and hate speech in the Eastern Partnership," funded by the European Union and the Council of Europe and implemented by the Council of Europe in their Partnership for Good Governance II 2019-2022.
