The International Network for Hate Studies will hold its Inaugural Conference at the University of Sussex on 8 and 9 May 2014.
The International Network for Hate Studies was created in response to the growing need to share information about multi-disciplinary, multi-agency and international efforts to better understand and address hate and hate crime.
The Inaugural Conference of the Network will provide a platform for creative engagement across the academic, policy, practitioner and activist communities, with the aim of providing innovative insights and responses to a serious challenge that affects our increasingly diverse societies. The conference will be truly international, with speakers already confirmed from South Africa, Norway, Sweden, Ireland, the United States, Canada, and Australia. The conference is being held on the 8th and 9th of May at the University of Sussex.
