Preparing for and responding to far-right protests

Activity: Talk or presentationOral presentation

Description

In recent years, multiple countries have seen far-right activism pose a significant challenge to peaceful relations, increasing societal division and threatening some of the most marginalized members of society. In this scenario-based workshop, we invite participants to explore and reflect on the challenges of and opportunities for inhibiting conflict escalation in the context of waves of protests by far-right actors. We do this using a range of visual and creative tools and discussion. The workshop is based on an international research project that examined the escalation and inhibition of protest-related violence and aggression during waves of far-right and anti-minority activism.
