Online with HateAid: An Evening on Digital Violence, Protection, and Solidarity

When hate comments, fake profiles, or the unsolicited sharing of intimate content dominate digital life, there is a need for knowledge, attitude, and quick guidance. This online evening with HateAid addresses these issues: the event focuses on digital violence and demonstrates how digital solidarity empowers victims and makes civic courage in the online space tangible.

A Topic that Affects Many

Digital violence is no longer a fringe phenomenon. The evening highlights typical forms such as hate comments, doxxing, sexualized attacks, and the dissemination of personal data. The perspective of those affected takes center stage, as well as the question of how prevention can be achieved in everyday life. The event combines awareness-raising with practical knowledge and creates space for exchange.

Expert Knowledge from the Source

With Ella Lassner from HateAid, an expert on the digital podium will present who understands the dynamics of online violence and the ways to effectively counter it. HateAid was founded in 2018 as a non-profit organization and advocates for human rights in the digital sphere. The organization provides advice, legal support, and political enlightenment regarding digital violence.

What Participants Can Expect

The focus is on preventive protection options, assistance after attacks, and paths to greater digital solidarity. According to the event announcement, the emphasis is on sexist and sexualized digital violence. At the same time, the event highlights how important clear organization, good event planning, and accessible target group communication are in such formats.

Location and Framework

Even though the format takes place online, the organizational connection is firmly rooted on-site: The department for equality, family, and inclusion of the city of Bochum at the Husemann Karree coordinates participation. The building is accessible at ground level, equipped with elevators, and easily reachable via the Husemann Karree parking garage. Participation is free, but spots are limited.

Conclusion: An Evening for More Attitude Online

This online event promises no theoretical distance but concrete guidance for a digital reality that many are directly affected by. Those who want to understand how digital violence arises and how digital solidarity works will gain solid insights and clear impulses here. An evening that informs, empowers, and invites participation.
