Project description

The overall goal of the Arguments Against Aggression project is to equip citizens with communication and argumentation skills that they can use in social networking sites or real-life interactions when confronted with aggressive, racist or xenophobic messages, inequalities and gender-based violence.

In this way, they can transform unproductive shouting or passive-aggressive avoidance into truly productive conversations that should result in participants having a clearer understanding of each other's points of view, and develop skills and motivation to act against injustice.
