- We run regular workshops on a range of themes and issues relating to far right activism and its impacts and harm
- We publish evidence-based research and analysis about the latest emerging trends around far right activity in Ireland

Our Work
We work to demonstrate the link between social media corporations and the spread and amplification of hate and far right activity. We push decision makers to step up nationally and internationally to address this.
- We engage decision makers on the harms of far right organising and the impact on affected communities, democracy, and social cohesion
- We work from the local to the global to building analysis and actions to hold policy makers and legislators to accounts
- We work to hold platforms and corporations like Facebook, X (formerly Twitter), TikTok and YouTube accountable for the harms they facilitate.
