The “Shades of reality” photo contest is underway, an initiative designed to counter anti-black racism and Afro-phobia. The contest is organized as part of the European project CHAMPS – Champions of Human rights And Multipliers countering Afrophobia and Afrophobic Speech by Amref, of which the Osservatorio di Pavia is a partner.
The National Network for the Contrast to Hate Speeches and Phenomena, of which the Osservatorio di Pavia is a part, proposes to candidates in the next administrative elections to sign a five-point Vademecum against the use of hate speech hate on the campaign trail.
Analyse and deconstruct, in Italy, discriminatory attitudes and languages towards people of African origin, thanks to the active and strengthened role of Afro-descendant associations and to a more widespread knowledge and awareness of the dynamics that generate them. This is the mission of CHAMPS, supported by the European Union, which is implemented through the collaboration between Amref Health Africa Onlus-Italy, Arising Africans, Associazione Carta di Roma, CSVnet, CSV Marche, Divercity APS, Le Réseau, Osservatorio di Pavia and Razzismo Brutta Storia.
