Rights, Equality and Citizenship (REC) Programme of the European Commission (2014-2020) Monitoring and Detecting Online Hate Speech Version 1.1 D4.4 Landscape and Gap Analysis Abstract This is deliverable 4.4 for the Mandola project. This document focuses on the variety of ongoing initiatives (both EC funded and Non EC-funded, and profiles current activities in Europe and performs a brief Gap Analysis. Many countries are already supported by hotlines taking reports about hate speech through the INHOPE network and through other networks including INACH. However, some countries still do not have a structured response to hate speech or a method to handle complaints or reports about hate speech. For example, many members of the INHOPE network are from the area of children’s rights and have no mandate to respond to hate speech except in-so-far as they affect children. This report will highlight best practice in this field and through the gap analysis determine areas which MANDOLA will focus on.
